What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a team where I can own end-to-end Android delivery, architect scalable systems, and measure impact with A/B tests and analytics—ideally in fintech/messaging, with a strong engineering culture and clean practices.

I’m a Senior Android Developer with 6+ years of commercial Android development, focused on building and shipping reliable, high-load products in fintech, payment systems, messengers, and crypto wallets. I take ownership from scoping to release, and I care about architecture that stays clean under real production pressure.

In my current role, I work on core features for one of Russia’s largest messenger & social products (100M+ MAU), leading cross-functional delivery and production launches. I’ve architected large-scale UI redesign work with Jetpack Compose and a strong design system, run A/B testing with analytics, and improved reliability through robust integration testing. Previously, I delivered customer-journey features end-to-end, refactored checkout and shopping cart flows, modernized codebases (Java → Kotlin, Dagger → Hilt), and improved performance by eliminating memory leaks and reducing frame drops.
