Bio
Alexandra Temlyakova
Irina is very goal oriented and responsible. Irina’s brilliant organisational and task management skills allow her to complete projects on time and with high quality. Together with the product team she implemented an algorithm for matching a psychologist with a client's request. Also she designed the DB structure of the service and deployed integrations and solutions to facilitate the work of customer service and back office. I hope to work with Irina again in future and I highly recommend her.
Anna Krymskaia
Irina is a unique person who sets ambitious goals and achieves them step by step. When Irina joined our team she was quite a junior specialist in back-end development but after one year of practicing, education at different courses, solving new and new problems she grew dramatically. She has grown to a team lead position very quickly. And there are 5 main reasons for that: 1)she loves to learn new skills, 2)she is open to feedback, 3)she builds deep and ecological relationships with the team, 4)she is very responsible and systematic, 5)she has big ambitions and psychological resources for them. I definite recommend Irina and I'm sure that each employer will benefit with such an employee.

YouTalk enables people to get qualified psychological help safely and conveniently by connecting them with certified psychologists for online consultations. YouTalk is one of the leaders in this field. At YouTalk, I lead our development team and work full-stack, from designing engineering systems to productionizing them.I manage the whole delivery process with Agile technology and maintain a friendly climate inside the team, care about my co-worker's productivity and help them find points of growth. I extensively use the following tools: Jira, Miro, Notion, ClickUp, and GitHub Projects. I design, develop, deploy, and maintain client-server apps for our product; particularly, I:• designed the DB structure of the service (MongoDB)• integrated various services into our platform• identified a problem with how our coordinators were maintaining public profiles of the psychologists, proposed a solution, implemented it in a few days by developing a CMS and a frontend to manage the psychologists’ pages, and saved dozens of hours of coordinators’ timeEnvironment/tools: JavaScript, Node.js, React, MongoDB, Strapi, Docker Show less
