I developed applications using React Native in the tourism industry.

Developed Android-based point-of-sale (POS) software for airport terminals across Russia in Kotlin, integrating low-level device APIs/SDKs (receipt printing, barcode scanning, payment module). Worked with an uncommon stack (SOAP, RabbitMQ).
