Munich Area, Germany As a senior software engineer I worked on both frontend and backend parts of the website and microservices. While I was at this position I had a chance to work quite closely with React and legacy jquery-style code. Most of the time I was building new react one-feature-apps that I would later integrate into the legacy code base. From the backend side, I did quite big refactoring of our PHP monster classes (5000+ lines) splitting them into smaller ones and making them work together… Show more As a senior software engineer I worked on both frontend and backend parts of the website and microservices. While I was at this position I had a chance to work quite closely with React and legacy jquery-style code. Most of the time I was building new react one-feature-apps that I would later integrate into the legacy code base. From the backend side, I did quite big refactoring of our PHP monster classes (5000+ lines) splitting them into smaller ones and making them work together using the composition pattern. In addition to that I got an AWS certificate and implemented a fully serverless project using Terraform, Gateway API, Lambda Function and DynamoDB. Apart from that I was actively taking part in grooming and planning of different projects. Plus sometimes doing internal tech presentations.

Moscow, Russian Federation Founded an e-commerce company with former colleagues. During this time I learned a lot about all aspects of business, which, I believe, influenced all my future career. I became much more business oriented and result-driven. My contribution included technical architecture and design, collaboration with freelancers, forming requirements based on the business needs. Unfortunately we had to close the company because we couldn’t attract the necessary financing on time.
