Quema Executive Interview
I am the CEO of Quema.
However, I’ve been involved in sports since an early age, which has shaped my "thirst for a challenge" and a desire for constant growth and self-improvement.
This has given me the determination to work my way up in many IT companies for 12 years from startups to Fortune 100 companies and move ahead in my career from “IT Support" to Lead of DevOps position.
At one point, I realized that I needed to move on and take on a new challenge myself. Well, what could be a better challenge than starting your own company? There's enough challenge and opportunity here to implement all the ideas that I've been accumulating for over 12 years in IT. I was lucky enough to meet my business partner who shared many of my values. He also had some fantastic ideas which we have been implementing together we decided on directions and began our journey at Quema. This is the story behind starting Quema.
Also, at Quema we have our own culture which we stick to and follow, and the "in-house" model allows employees to be part of it.
First of all, the industry chooses the technological stack, that it will use at the moment (or plans to migrate to it) and which best suits its requirements.
One of the most recurring areas in Quema is Big Data and data processing we have enough experience and expertise in this area.
Nowadays, thanks to cloud solutions and providers, this can be easily achieved. However, it is necessary to implement it on the application side first, and that’s when you need our expertise to exclude all SPOF (Single Point of Failure).
At the moment, about 50% of our clients recommend us as a reliable service provider, which is an indicator of the level of trust and service to us.
This is due to our communication with them as we put ourselves in our customers' shoes and try to help them using all our knowledge and experience.
Naturally, we are trying to increase this percentage, and it is one of our top priorities.
First, we install and configure a monitoring system for all important services and components. As soon as we get a notification, we automatically create a ticket with the incident in the ITSM system.
Once the problem has been fixed, we create a separate ticket to analyze the incident and prevent it in the future.
Regarding SoW, we collect all the requirements from the client, do the analysis and create a proposal for SoW which includes:
- A detailed description of what will be done.
- What kind of work is included in the SoW.
- End result.
- Timing and delivery of SoW.
- Final price.
For example, if the requirements are high, then we need to involve some of the best-qualified and highly-paid engineers for successful implementation. In the case of regular requirements, we will offer the customer the best option for implementation. We are open to all our clients from small to large with different budgets and requirements. In any case, we discuss all these aspects and come to a unanimous win-win solution for both parties.
- DevOps.
- DevSecOps.
- SRE.
- MlOPS.
- GitOps .
- IaC.
We will continue to do what we love and can do best, taking the demands and complexity of our projects to new levels. Also, in the next 10 years, one of the goals I see for Quema is to be associated with DevOps. when talking about Quema - talk about DevOps.
