I build systems that people can trust after the demo.
I am Dan Burdetsky, an Automation and AI Integrations Engineer.
Today I apply that production mindset to business automation, AI integrations and digital systems.
I started in broadcast and real-time video, where technical failures are public and time matters.
From 2021 to 2024 I was VP of DevOps for an interactive video and live-streaming platform, through its acquisition.
I stay hands-on. I map the process, build the workflow and the custom code around it, test the failure modes, and document the handover.
Clients work directly with me. If a simpler solution is enough, I will say so.
I have handed systems over to teams on three continents. Documentation and ownership are part of the build, not something I add at the end.
Working remotely worldwide in English, Hebrew and Russian.
