Victor Okunev
Development
At the time when Victor was graduating with MSc in Computer Science from a university in Moscow he could hardly imagine that eighteen years later, seasoned software professional he would be invited to contribute to the success of the most exciting startup company on the opposite side of the globe.
Victor has shaped his professional career by developing software for companies in Russia, USA, UK and Canada. Among his achievements are successful projects for Sprint, RSA Security, Sierra Systems, Pacific Blue Cross, BCAA, BC Government and TELUS just to name a few. His professional certifications include highly recognized Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer and Sun Microsystems Certified Java Developer. A number of Victor’s articles were published in the industry-leading JavaWorld magazine.
Victor is firm believer that “life is like a box of chocolates” of which the most notable in his life so far are his two sons, becoming Canadian, his continuous work as senior course instructor with Learning Tree International and own flight school that successfully operates in South Surrey. The only complaint Victor has in life is that 24 hour-long day is not enough.
