A bit of Sergii, IT, and cats

With 25+ years in software development, I’ve been part of projects ranging from tiny 20-hour solo efforts to 90,000-hour programs with teams of up to 40 people.

My specialty is tackling problems that don’t want to be solved — ideas that resist estimates, prototypes that ask uncomfortable questions, and integrations where teams hesitate to look. I’m most at home at the edges: where custom Wi-Fi gadgets and flaky Bluetooth devices must talk to enterprise backends, where “smart homes” need to feel smart, where undocumented payment APIs pretend to exist, where legacy banking systems insist on living forever, and where cloud platforms, automation scripts, and sensors all try to argue at once.

Why? Because in the end, it’s all about working with people.

This blog is called “A bit of Sergii, IT, and cats” because it mixes three things that define me: my work as an architect, my thoughts on technology, and the lives of eleven cats who share my home.

“I make the complex simple, and the simple complex.”
