I am a software and data engineer who started a professional IT career in 2016. Within data engineering, I have good experience working with Apache Spark, Delta Lake, and Databricks as a platform. I also love and use functional programming in most of my projects; Python's mypy, software architectures, distributed systems, and concurrent programming. My main language is Python, but also I work in Scala.

I had various and very different experience with building Data Lakes (primary Databricks or Delta Lake on hdfs), ELT pipelines, Testing tools, CI/CD systems, clouds (mostly AWS), RHEL, Centos.

I am big advocate for software testing. Generally, I am working on solving complex problems, building system architectures and frameworks.

My last three projects are used by many people and keep evolving even if I dropped maintaining them.

I prefer reading books and get a deep understanding of technologies.

I am maintaining multiple OSS projects and the latest OSS project I've built is pramen-py https://github.com/AbsaOSS/pramen/tree/main/pramen-py. This is a framework enabling a convenient way to define spark transformations pipelines.

One other project that addresses the testing convenience is https://github.com/zhukovgreen/pytest-when

But one of my favorite which is small but very powerful is https://github.com/zhukovgreen/friendly-sequences. This is type-safe library for functions chaining.

Within Paylocity I built many interesting frameworks for the data quality systems, feature store and declarative schema evolution framework, new CI/CD system and many other interesting and useful projects.

Building data platform for data scientists.

Databricks on AWS is the main platform. Pulumi / Terraform for infrastructure. Python is the primary language. Spark and Delta Lake.

Scope of work:

• setting standards in the team software development practices
• building data platform
• enable data quality system
• data transformation framework
• automatization of databricks pipeline deployment
• feature store and data contracts, tables metadata management
• schema evolution
• data transformation framework
• queries optimization
• streaming batch data processing

Many other things in the area of big data, delta lakes, data ingestions, data catalogs, etc.

Dates Employed Aug 2021 - Aug 2022

Developing and building components of on-premise system for convenient big data ETL processes, together with abstractions around data warehouse for the data scientists (feature centric interfaces). Apart of these work, I was developing different data transformations for different projects, and maintaining one existing project.

Dates Employed Jul 2021 - Aug 2021

Working in the Convert2RHEL team. Designing the simple, but specific and reach CI system for developing and running integration tests (libvirt, ansible, testing farm, tmt). Developing new features in the upstream project, code review. Adopting pytest, transition the app to python3, mentoring.

A note from the promotion document:

Artem joined Red Hat during the spring of 2020 as a software developer working on
the LEAPP team. Artem’s enthusiasm for Python and pythonic development practices 
soon led him to adopt an advocacy role on his team. 
Artem transitioned to the Convert2RHEL team in early 2021, and rapidly became one
of the team’s most prolific contributors. He continued to broaden his reach beyond 
his SST by creating a hardware deprecation database and associated microservice 
which helps to take the mystery out of hardware support. 
Artem’s creativity and energy have made him a true asset to his teams.

Dates Employed Apr 2020 - June 2020
