Led end-to-end development of internal tools and automation systems for mobile game production. Built services to streamline game dictionary editing, asset packaging, CI/CD workflows, and publishing to app stores. Worked closely with game designers, QA, and client developers to optimize delivery and reduce manual steps. Key achievements: - Developed tools for automated publishing of game builds and in-app products to Google Play, App Store, and Xsolla using Flask and third-party APIs. - Created a monitoring & deployment dashboard for ~50 microservices on macOS build machines with health checks, version switching, and Git-based config using Flask, WebSocket and Bash. - Refactored and enhanced the internal game configuration admin panel, improving performance, user experience, and reducing data aggregation time. Game dictionaries were stored in MongoDB; implemented multiple data structure migrations to support evolving gameplay logic and designer requirements. Technologies included Flask, MongoDB, JavaScript (Webix), WebSocket, and Protobuf. - Extended internal services for packaging and managing game assets to support evolving content types aligned with business needs, with full test coverage implemented using PyTest. - Developed and maintained CI/CD pipelines for mobile game testing using GitLab CI. Created custom webhook processors for GitLab events to trigger automated test execution and game builds on relevant events. - Implemented backend API integration inside a Unity-based Match-3 level editor to automatically upload newly created levels to the game configuration system. - Migrated internal repositories from Mercurial to Git (GitLab) with structural adaptations for CI/CD compatibility.

Maintained and extended the REST API for a large pension fund platform used by external clients. Worked on backend logic, data operations, and asynchronous task handling in a Linux environment, with a strong focus on performance and security. Key achievements: - Implemented two-factor authentication flow based on business requirements, improving user security on the platform. - Fixed critical issues and added new features to the Tornado-based API serving the pension fund’s main website. - Worked extensively with MSSQL: crafted data extraction queries to support targeted operations like user segmentation for email campaigns. - Set up scheduled cron jobs for periodic data operations and system tasks. - Used Celery + RabbitMQ for asynchronous background processing; Redis for support logic (e.g. caching, session or token storage). - Maintained detailed API documentation using Sphinx. - Wrote and executed automated tests with PyTest to ensure code reliability. - Supported CI/CD processes using TeamCity and worked with Git in Linux-based development environments.

Built and deployed a range of personal projects focused on backend development, automation, and content delivery. Delivered full-cycle applications — from backend logic and database integration to frontend rendering and production deployment. Key projects: - Developed a mini-CRM system for managing electronic components with automated parsing of XML files and structured data storage. - Created a personal blogging platform with a daily journaling feature and Telegram notification bot integration. - Built and published several games in Unity, exploring game logic, UI, and data serialization. - Implemented Python-based web scraping scripts for structured data extraction from websites using BeautifulSoup4. - Wrote unit, integration, and UI tests using PyTest, Unittest, and Selenium to ensure stability and maintainability across projects.

Managed project documentation, technical specification workflows, and multi-party coordination for engineering initiatives in the aerospace sector. Oversaw contract cycles, timelines, and communications across departments and contractors under state procurement regulations. Key responsibilities: - Led the negotiation and execution of contracts for complex engineering and R&D projects. - Collaborated with technical teams to prepare and review detailed specifications (ToRs). - Coordinated formal communications and milestone tracking across project stakeholders. - Supervised document workflows, budget checkpoints, and compliance with procurement rules. This experience provided a strong foundation in structured project management, process discipline, and technical communication — skills I’ve successfully transferred into my work as a developer.
