Hello! I'm Tim Derzhavets 👋, a DevOps Engineer based in Rishon LeTsion, Israel 🇮🇱. With extensive experience in implementing SRE methodologies and managing production deployments, I specialize in optimizing systems for efficiency and reliability.

Currently, I work at 3Doptix as a DevOps Engineer, where I implement SRE practices, manage production deployments, and perform reverse engineering on legacy systems. Prior to this, I served as a Lead DevOps Engineer at Aspose from February 2022 to April 2024. There, I led a team of three DevOps engineers, automated GitOps workflows, and optimized AWS expenses by up to 30%.

In addition to my professional work, I love working on side projects 🚀 that allow me to explore new technologies and innovate creative solutions. These projects keep me inspired and continuously learning.

My technical expertise includes Linux system administration 🐧, Kubernetes orchestration (including EKS, GKE, Rancher, and Portainer), and CI/CD tools like GitLab CI, GitHub Actions, Jenkins, and TeamCity. I'm proficient in Infrastructure as Code using Terraform and Ansible, and I have hands-on experience with cloud platforms such as AWS, GCP, and Azure ☁️.

I'm also skilled in monitoring and logging tools like Grafana 📊, Zabbix, Prometheus, and Victoria Metrics. My scripting abilities span across Bash, PowerShell, and Python 🐍, and I have experience working with message brokers like Kafka and RabbitMQ.

Outside of work, I enjoy staying updated with the latest technologies in DevOps and cloud computing. I'm passionate about continuous learning and often engage in personal projects to expand my skill set. When I'm not coding, I spend time with my beloved cat 🐱, who keeps me company during late-night coding sessions.

Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn or reach out via email at [email protected]. I'm always open to discussing new opportunities and collaborations.
