Michael Ratnikov's Linkedin Analytics

🔸15 Years of Professional Experience 🔸3 Startups Launched from Scratch to Finish 🔸50+ Projects Deployed to Production on Time Hello! My name is Michael. I'm a .NET solution architect with 15 years of experience. During my exciting tech journey, I have worked on dozens of projects in various industries including Transportation, Automotive, E-Travel, and Insurance. My roles have spanned numerous positions, including: ▸ CTO ▸ Tech Lead ▸ Full Stack Developer ▸ Solution Architect ▸ DevOps Engineer ▸ Project Manager ▸ Recruiter ▸ Mentor I have a clear understanding of every step that needs to be taken from the first draft written on a bunch of sticky notes to the sophisticated web platform deployed to production. 🔸Guiding businesses through the maze of modern technology I'm passionate about building complex systems, whether it's a brand-new product requiring construction from scratch or a large legacy system in need of modernization and cloud migration. I understand that when it comes to technical implementation, businesses must navigate through uncertainty, facing an immense diversity of possible technical solutions. It's easy to get lost in this digital ocean of modern technologies and become overwhelmed by the challenges that arise. My role is to eliminate all questions related to technical implementation so that my clients can concentrate on their core business goals. During my IT journey, I've gathered a repository of practical insights. This equips me with a keen understanding of the common pitfalls that teams might encounter and how to deftly navigate around them. 🔸Philosophy and Superpower Throughout my career, I've been reassured many times that “the best is the enemy of the good”. In my work, I adhere to this philosophy by keeping things simple and clear, guided by the principles of KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid) and YAGNI (You Ain't Gonna Need It). This doesn't mean sacrificing quality for speed and functionality; it's all about balance. There's no one-size-fits-all approach to achieving this balance, as it depends on many factors and varies from project to project. Feeling and wisely implementing this balance is vital. That's why I regard intuition as my superpower. By harnessing the power of my intuition, I can pinpoint the most efficient and effective approaches, saving time and resources for both my clients and the development team. 🔸Softwisery - My Company I also run a software development and consulting company called Softwisery. The company focuses on premium quality solutions for SMBs. Thanks for learning about me!
