Nikolaj Tolkačiov

Nikolaj is a Test Practice Lead at Devbridge with strong expertise in testing gained in host of tech companies and projects with majority of them requiring automation solutions. Being a passionate video gamer, he decided to study IT and ended up getting his bachelor’s degree in informatics engineering. His first attempt to automate was a script written purely with android SDK command line tools and from then only seeking stable, reliable, and effective way to automate.

Linas Steponavičius

Linas is earning his Bachelor’s Degree in physics, but is planning to switch to an IT major. He enjoys working with computers, and has a talent for it. He has worked in a team to build computer games, putting his natural knack for programming scripts to work. He’s motivated by the opportunity to solve challenges, and would always rather work on a team where people can help each other out than work by himself.

Linas doesn’t just build video games, he’s also an avid gamer and can often be found on Steam. He’s also a music fan, especially hard rock, and plays the electric guitar. Cars – fast ones, especially – are another passion of his, and he sometimes relaxes by driving go-karts.

Saulius Petrauskas

Saulius holds a bachelor’s degree in statistics and is currently working on a master’s degree in informatics. He worked for a wide range of organizations before joining the Devbridge team, including Lithuania Statistics, Euromonitor International, Transcom Worldwide Vilnius and Asseco Lithuania. At Devbridge, he looks forward to riding the roller coaster of diverse, ever-changing projects and challenges.

When he was a kid, Saulius dreamt of driving a McLaren sports car, but today his ambitions are more in the computing realm: he aspires to learn how to design 3D games. His favorite books include the Stormlight Archives series, he loves the movie Man of Steel and he couldn’t live without YouTube. He has a rich collection of board games, which he enjoys playing with his friends, and though he has hard time naming just one favorite food, he will admit to never turning down a pizza.
