About Ilya Fedotov
I am Ilya Fedotov, a dedicated IT professional with over 20 years of experience in designing and implementing complex IT solutions. My career has been driven by a passion for innovation and problem-solving, particularly in the areas of IT infrastructure, cloud services, and virtualization. As a Microsoft Solution Architect, I’ve had the privilege of working with leading technologies like Microsoft, Citrix, and VMware to transform how businesses operate and scale their IT environments.
Starting my journey in IT in the early 2000s, I quickly discovered that my strengths lie in translating technical challenges into strategic, scalable solutions. Over the years, I’ve worked in various roles—consultant, technical lead, team leader, and solution architect—across multiple industries, helping companies large and small to modernize their IT infrastructure and embrace new technologies.
After two decades of working for major organizations, I transitioned into freelancing in 2023, where I now focus on delivering personalized IT solutions that meet the unique needs of my clients. Specializing in Citrix environments, Active Directory, and Azure, I help businesses tackle challenges related to cloud migration, IT infrastructure optimization, and multi-cloud integrations.
As a freelancer, I offer a more hands-on and personalized approach, collaborating closely with clients to understand their needs and goals. Whether it’s leading an Active Directory consolidation or optimizing a multi-cloud environment, my focus is always on providing practical, sustainable solutions that drive business success.
Career Highlights
Over the course of my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work with organizations of all sizes, from international corporations to smaller, agile businesses. Some of my most notable projects include:
- Active Directory and Azure Integration Projects – Ensuring seamless migrations and optimized cloud environments for businesses transitioning to hybrid IT infrastructures.
- Windows 10 Migration for Enterprise Clients – Leading a team that successfully packaged and deployed over 1,500 applications in a massive system upgrade.
- Citrix Infrastructure Solutions – Acting as a Citrix Subject Matter Expert (SME) and architect for numerous projects, optimizing performance, and resolving complex technical challenges.
- Cross-industry IT Consulting – Providing tailored solutions and technical leadership for businesses across finance, technology, and other sectors, helping them modernize their IT operations.

My services include IT project management, cloud integration, infrastructure optimization, and consulting on emerging technologies. I pride myself on my ability to stay up-to-date with the latest trends in IT, ensuring that my clients always benefit from the most current and effective solutions.
