I build backend systems, developer tooling, and gameplay features that improve product quality.
BelarusWhat I'm looking for
I've built an e-commerce web service from scratch at Innowise and improved its code quality through multiple reviews.
At Yandex Self-driving Cars, I developed automated test-generation infrastructure, unified node-configuration parameters, improved simulation quality, and increased test coverage.
I'm now building gameplay features at Press Fire Games, where I've delivered an asset-deduplication tool that reduced application size by 1GB and performance-test architecture that exposed art-production issues.
I also integrate quality automation with clang-tidy, improve crashlytics and analytics, fix issues across gameplay and engine-adjacent features, and work extensively with C++, algorithms, and data structures.
