Evgeny Koshkin

As a System Engineer / DevOps at Social Discovery Group, I work on production high-load infrastructure reliability, automation, and operational support for distributed services.

My responsibilities include Linux server administration, Kubernetes operations, GitLab CI/CD support, infrastructure automation with Ansible and Terraform, monitoring and logging, Nginx routing, SSL/DNS troubleshooting, and incident investigation.

I work with production high-load systems based on Kubernetes, Linux, Nginx, Postfix, RabbitMQ, Kafka, ClickHouse, MongoDB, Redis, PostgreSQL, Prometheus, VictoriaMetrics, Grafana, Loki, and Zabbix.

My main focus is keeping production infrastructure stable, observable, and maintainable: improving deployment processes, automating repetitive tasks, troubleshooting production issues, and helping development teams operate services more reliably.

As a DevOps Engineer at Cookies Games, I am responsible for preparing and optimizing the infrastructure for deploying new projects. Focusing on improving continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) processes, I successfully develop and configure automated pipelines, ensuring efficient deployment and high reliability of products. My key responsibilities and achievements include:

Development and implementation of infrastructure for scalability and security of projects, using AWS, Kubernetes (K8s), Terraform to create flexible and resilient environments.

Optimization of CI/CD pipelines in GitLab, which automates the testing and deployment processes, reducing the time to market and improving code quality.

Configuration and scaling of runners, increasing the performance and reliability of the build and deployment processes, while using Hetzner Cloud for additional resources.

Monitoring and ensuring high availability of services, applying Cloudflare to improve security and loading speed, actively using monitoring tools to prevent failures.

Close interaction with development teams to implement best DevOps practices, improving continuous integration and delivery processes, and ensuring uninterrupted operation of products.

My work not only contributes to improving the efficiency of work processes but also significantly enhances the reliability and security of the developed projects, maintaining high standards of quality and customer satisfaction.

I work in the service department that is responsible for supporting large and medium-sized corporate clients such as CocaCola, FIFA, Alfa Bank, Kaspersky, MGTS, Sberbank, Rostelecom, Sogaz, and others. Our support encompasses internal services, data centers and clouds, virtualization systems, Windows/Linux servers, networks, monitoring (using Zabbix), Jira, backup systems, Microsoft Exchange, BMC Remedy, and so forth.

I designed the service logic and assembled a team of developers. I also designed and built the service's cloud architecture, automated all internal processes, and created a service bot for team interaction with the service and database. I set up CI/CD, configured monitoring of services and servers, and designed and assembled analytical data on various metrics. These are displayed in the form of charts and tables in real time. Also, I participate in business processes and product development and defining innovation strategy.
