At Microsoft Performance Analysis and Research Center (PARC) in Redmond, WA, worked together with MS experts to analyze application performance (including stress testing), optimize product design and investigate compatibility with Windows Server 2003. • Design and implementation of video-conferencing server systems. Elaborated Windows 2000 based solutions with installation, configuration and support of SQL Server, IIS, and multi-tier FVC server software. Implemented several Active Directory models with dynamic DNS for different installation scenarios, including multi-tree forests with customized schema and trust relationships. Designed several architectural components and ports diagrams for FVC multi-tier application server. • Cluster implementation for high availability solution. Designed and implemented cluster solutions based on SQL Server 2000, Microsoft Cluster Server and Compaq CL cluster hardware (using shared SCSI RAID or SAN storage). Wrote installation guides for implementing High Availability solution for FVC application server and configuring operating system and server applications. Performed cluster maintenance/troubleshooting. • SQL Cluster DataCenter installation. This short time contract was performed for MirrorPlus Technologies (http://www.mirrorplus.com). Built two datacenter Compaq clusters (ProLiant 8500R and ML530), based on Windows 2000 Advanced Server, from scratch, configured network for clustering, installed and configured SQL Server 2000 cluster, created and tuned all necessary cluster resources. Both clusters were using Compaq StorageWorks SAN storage with RAID 10 configured hardware RAID. • Cisco routers / proxies integration. Designed and implemented Cisco interoperability solution using Cisco MCM gatekeeper / proxy servers (based on Cisco 26xx / 36xx routers) for managing V 2 oIP networks with directory gatekeepers, H.323 proxies, and QoS. Designed several integration solutions for different multi-zone scenarios used by customers. Contributed into designing proxy and zones support in FVC server. • Installation and support of customer servers. Working in a team (Professional Services group), implemented FVC solutions for customers, built single and cluster servers, installed and configured all software, performed problems troubleshooting. Successfully implemented and supported FVC servers for AT&T, Verizon, EDS, Goldman Sachs, EMBC, GCC, VIA Networks, CalTrans. Performed phone-based consulting and remote troubleshooting, - last example was spyware detection and cleanup at Verizon and AT&T servers. • Security lockdown for FVC server solution. Designed, implemented and documented the security lockdown proposal for FVC application servers to protect from viruses, eliminate spyware and minimize hackers’ intrusions. This included reconfiguration of anonymous web application accounts for IIS 5.0. • FVC server quality assurance. As a senior engineer in the Engineering & QA Department, was involved in a high-level white box QA testing for FVC server components. Major accomplishments were in the installation and gatekeeper testing. Participated in the product design and architecture and contributed into database development and gatekeeper server development for FVC server. • Video End Points Certification. This senior QA project included design, implementation and maintenance of the endpoints Certification Lab – to test video end points for interoperability with FVC software. I had designed the testing specifications, the general test plan, and elaborated five detailed test cases for comprehensive video end points testing. Performed actual QA testing of more than 10 different video end points. • Network administration and troubleshooting. Worked with IT department to troubleshoot Windows 2000 and NT 4.0 server and network problems, primarily DHCP / DNS / WINS, VPN / NAT / firewall and different TCP/IP issues. Helped in troubleshooting Exchange 5.5 server. Participated in implementing the merge of two corporate networks (500+ nodes) in CA and NH and migration from NT 4.0 to Windows 2000. Contributed to design and implementation of the company’s intranet. • Training support & engineering staff. Designed, wrote and conducted series of seminars and presentations for FVC engineers on different subjects like ISDN, Windows 2000 Active Directory, Windows 2000 security/encryption, MS Cluster server, Cisco gatekeeper/proxy software, SQL database maintenance.

Used IIS 4.0 and Proxy 2.0 to build several Web sites with secure gateway to the Internet. For intranet needs, a SQL Server 7.0 was installed. Clients (internal and external) used ASP pages and ISAPI applications to interact with SQL databases. • Design, building and configuration of a web-based Information Center. Designed a Web-enabled Terminal server providing terminal access to Windows 2000 server with information database installed. Project was based on Citrix MetaFrame server; terminal sessions were initialized from web client interface. Nov. 1995 - Sep. 1997 Systems Engineer, Stack Ltd. Education Center, Tomsk, Russia • Design, installation and configuration of education center network. Project included IP and IPX routing scheme, NT-Novell gateway, RAS support. The result configuration provided quick class reconfiguration, including scripted reinstallation of the operating system and applications, restoration of trust relationships, user and groups rights and privileges, Internet access and messaging accounts. • Delivery of Microsoft Official Curriculum courses. Stack Ltd. is Microsoft Certified Technical Education Center (MS CTEC); as a Microsoft Certified Trainer (MCT), I was delivering various courses mostly on Windows NT 4.0 and TCP/IP (most popular classes were 922, 803, 688, 689, 798, and 955). More than 20 of my students on course completion successfully passed all necessary exams and became MCSE. • Organization, installation and configuration of Authorized Prometric Testing Center (by contract with Sylvan Prometric). This project was very important because our center was only the third in the whole former Soviet Union. Having signed the Agreement, we installed necessary hardware, mounted the network, installed and configured NetWare server and client software and vendor programs used for testing.
