About
Full-stack with a front-end lean. I build design-led interfaces and take them all the way to production: SSR, tests, CI, monitoring.
- Mail.ru main page: performance and Web Vitals, Chrome Excellence award.
- Design studios POW (London) and Vide Infra: products from the first screen to launch, and 3D scenes.
- Node and Go backend at Metamap, plus my own bots and servers.
