I hired Olga to work as a senior Java developer and Architect. She immediately took the role with multiple responsibilities far beyond expected. She is deadline driven, with a heavy emphasis on actual delivery, and was tasked with some of the most complicated Java modules involving the combination of efficient algorithms and distributed architecture. Highly recommended.
