Igor Kryltsov’s Summary

Deep Shift Labs is a small web applications development company that was founded in Sydney, Australia.

We are team of 6 people residing in all four hemispheres across three continents. Our distributed office approach enables our company to provide 24 hours a day service and support for any customer, anywhere in the world.

Primarily we develop complex and custom web applications and services using PHP and JavaScript technologies on both UNIX and Windows platforms.

Deep Shift Labs started life in 2002 to develop and deliver a web services project for Amity Group (now Bupa Care Services Australia).

The applications associated with the initial project have been in production since then, and have successfully evolved with the growing needs of a growing company. After seven years, and iterative project stages, the project continues today with the active code base now exceeding over 500k lines of code.

What else do we do?

- We write Selenium tests on PHPUnit and TestNG and test web applications on our Selenium Grid service
- We provide manual testing of web applications and services
- We provide remote system administration services on *nix systems to our clients.

Do you think that your company may need to enlist our services?
Do you want your next web applications project to be serviced by a stable Australian company with a seven year track record in the business?

We would be delighted to hear from you.

Igor Kryltsov’s Experience

• Founder

  Deep Shift Labs

  (Privately Held; Internet industry)

  April 2002 — Present (7 years 9 months)

  Company was established to complete a single project - proprietary web based system for an aged care business.
  
  It is evolved into Application Server written on PHP. System is live from 2002 when it was serving 5 homes and contained 3 applications. It is serving 51 now BUPA nursing homes and contains 21 applications now with about 400K lines of code and still counting.

• Tech Support Unix HA Suite

  Veritas Software

  (Public Company; 5001-10,000 employees; AUSTRALIA; Computer Software industry)

  September 2001 — June 2002 (10 months)

  Veritas HA is High Availability Suite:
  - Veritas Volume Manager
  - Veritas File System
  - Veritas Cluster Server
  - Veritas Volume Replicator
  All above on OS's: Solaris, AIX, RedHat, HPUX
  
  Was interesting to find:
  - servers which boot 60 minutes or have tens of thousands of attached disks
  - crying administrators who lost TB of data and have no backup
  - managers who were trying to measure tech support staff performance based on amount of resolved cases and their complexity.
  
  I was born in a country which is not on a map and I worked for a company which is a history now. Don't be surprised if something I am associated with will disappear in future :)

• Unix SysAdmin

  Telstra

  (Public Company; 5001-10,000 employees; AUSTRALIA; Telecommunications industry)

  February 2000 — September 2001 (1 year 8 months)

  There were 4-5 of us supporting TELSTRA dedicated web hosting customers - about 300 servers - mix of Compaq (Win) and Sun (Solaris).
  
  My first DIY project was to remove operators from server consoles checking Veritas BackupExec nightly backups (every morning - 300 servers). Servers started reporting results to web service with help of Perl and PHP. Something clicked in the skyes and my next job was with .... Veritas.
  Why? Money, strictly Unix job, top technology setups to learn and fix.

• Fellow

  Communism Builders Association

  (Public Company; 10,001 or more employees; USSR; Non-Profit Organization Management industry)

  October 1968 — August 1999 (30 years 11 months)

  Product Evangelist - Lenin V. I.
  
  Took part in upgrade project from "Communism" to "Capitalism" under codename "Perestroika" and management of Mikhail Gorbachev. Left company due to disagreement with delivery terms and final product features list to Australia.
