Need IT expertise?

I am Petar Tahchiev and I advise companies how to choose, set up and optimize IT systems in order to grow their business.

My Story

More than a decade in IT sector, as a developer, an entrepreneur and now a consultant, taught me first-hand what businesses actually need from their IT systems!

My professional background starts as an awarded mathematician and university programming lecturer. But I quickly turned to being a professional Java developer and worked on projects for big international clients such as Microsoft, Samsung, Triumph, Bridgestone, AVG, Mercedes, etc.

I have been a prominent open-source contributor for many years and a frequent guest speaker at tech conferences in the USA and Europe. I have been an active part in building the local Java community and have written many educational materials for Java.

I turned my passion and expertise for technologies in business and now advise companies around the globe in choosing, setting up and optimizing their IT systems, so that they can grow their business fast and sustainably.

Services

IT infrastructure audit

With the growth of the organization comes complexity on every level, including IT architecture. Many times the spaghetti code can be seen and solved only from an external point of view.

Software recommendation

Choosing the right software solution for your business needs often can make or break the whole project. Knowing how to evaluate and choose enterprise applications is a skill you can rent.

Implementation support

When you choose the right software solution, your main goal is to make it work with your existing system architecture. Mistakes here cost poor performance and lots of wasted time.
