About Ilya Dyskin

I am a Staff Software Engineer and Technical Leader dedicated to building resilient, high-scale systems and the high-performing teams that drive them. Over the past 9 years, I have navigated the full spectrum of software engineering—from architecting backend services and cloud infrastructure to leading enterprise identity management for global logistics networks.I specialize in leveraging Terraform and Kubernetes to deploy scalable applications that maintain high availability in complex environments. At Asurion, I led the implementation of standardized CI/CD pipelines using Terraform, and at Built Technologies, I authored the engineering department\'s guide for hybrid development using Kubernetes.Current Strategic Focus:*Infrastructure & Orchestration: Utilizing Terraform and Kubernetes to ensure the resiliency of mission-critical services like MISO and the \"Udon\" organizational suite.* Agentic AI: Developing autonomous backend workflows utilizing the BMAD method to bridge the gap between deterministic software and AI-led execution.* Business Insight: Completing an MBA at the University of North Alabama to align advanced technical roadmaps with organizational business objectives.
