Summary
Pavel Kalinin is an experienced infrastructure leader with 11 years in IT, currently heading Infrastructure at Slotegrator from his base in Larnaca, Cyprus. He has repeatedly built and scaled infrastructure teams and platforms—leading DevOps, SRE, L2 support and networking groups—and has driven cloud migrations, Kubernetes adoption, and IaC automation across multiple companies. Notable achievements include migrating large projects from bare-metal to GCP, implementing dynamic per-feature environments, and enabling 30+ daily releases with ArgoCD and GitLab CI. Pavel combines hands-on technical depth (Terraform, Ansible, Pulumi, Prometheus/Grafana, service mesh) with operational discipline around observability, fast rollback and disaster recovery. He also has a strong cost-optimization mindset, having reduced GCP spend via preemptible nodes and rapid region failover. Practical, process-oriented, and delivery-focused, he excels at turning complex infrastructure needs into reliable, scalable systems.
