Today, we\u2019re stepping into the world of Vadim Lavrentev, GRID’s Technical Delivery Manager, as he shares the journey that led him from developer to bridging the gap between GRID and its customers. Learn what truly energizes him and what he’s most excited to tackle as esports technology evolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

1. Looking back at your career path, how did you get into technical delivery, and what keeps you energized in your role?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It was a long and interesting journey. Previously, I was working as a developer, but then over time I decided to try something different and joined GRID as a support agent. Then GRID noticed that it wasn\u2019t the right place for me and I was offered to join the delivery team. Since then, I\u2019ve really enjoyed being part of the team. I like helping people integrate our APIs and solve various issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

2. Walk us through the responsibilities that fill your daily and weekly calendar. What is your main focus as a technical delivery manager?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As a technical delivery manager, I work closely with customers and help them integrate our product. I\u2019m sort of a bridge between GRID and customers. I advocate for customers every day, helping them achieve the full potential of our products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

3. As esports technology evolves rapidly, what’s one future challenge or opportunity you are most excited to tackle?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m excited about seeing GRID bring more new game titles. Working with new titles always excites me and keeps me energized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

4. What’s something about your personal way of working or problem-solving in technical delivery that might not be immediately obvious to others?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Having worked as a developer in the past enables me to see the bigger picture and better understand how customers integrate our products, as well as anticipate potential challenges before they even arise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

5. Beyond the world of GRID and esports, what’s a personal hobby or interest that excites you?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

I still enjoy coding in my free time and often work on small side projects just for fun or to try out new technologies. I also like to unwind by playing video games with friends. Lately, we\u2019ve been really into R.E.P.O. (it\u2019s a fun indie game where you and your friends team up to recover stolen items in a sci-fi setting). When I\u2019m away from the computer, I love singing and often go to karaoke bars with friends. It\u2019s a great way to spend time outside of the tech world and do something completely different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
