Yuriy Koldobanov is a seasoned IT leader with 14 years of professional experience and over nine years managing global IT and security teams, currently serving as Senior Director of Information Technology at Mirantis. He has repeatedly scaled IT from startup to corporate maturity—building a 14-person high-performing team, establishing security and compliance functions from scratch, and delivering ISO 27000 certification in under six months. Yuriy combines deep hands-on networking and infrastructure chops (including running an AS and deploying BGP) with strategic vendor selection, cost optimization, and process automation to reduce operational overhead. He has led complex global rollouts, office builds, and M&A-related integrations while maintaining minimal business disruption during major migrations. With a Master’s in Computer Science and a background running university-scale networks and fiber backbone projects, he brings rare low-level technical experience alongside proven leadership in compliance and security. An understated strength is his knack for institutionalizing repeatable IT practices that keep fast-growing companies auditable and resilient.
