I design and maintain microservice architectures, REST and GraphQL APIs, real-time communication systems, and database-driven applications. I have worked on international taxi platforms, multiplayer games, educational products, CRM/ERP solutions, and financial systems.

I have strong experience with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Prisma, TypeORM, and Mongoose. I focus on database performance, system scalability, access control, billing, reporting, and reliable integrations.

I have implemented integrations with payment providers, mapping services, analytics platforms, notifications, and postback systems. My work includes routing and geocoding integrations using Valhalla and Nominatim.

I use AWS services, Docker, Git, CI/CD practices, and monitoring tooling such as Prometheus, Elasticsearch, Kibana, and Grafana. I contribute to production reliability, observability, and performance optimization.

I also have experience supporting frontend applications with React, Tailwind, Redux, and Vue.js. I communicate professionally in Ukrainian, Russian, and English.

Backend Engineer Gaming Project (RP Server for GTA V)

I developed backend functionality for one of the first large Ukrainian GTA V roleplay servers. I initially collaborated with two backend developers and later continued development independently.

Using Node.js, AltV, and MongoDB, I implemented multiplayer game features, chats, player interactions, real-time events, matchmaking APIs, account management, and live communication systems. I also designed event-based architecture and optimized performance for thousands of concurrent users.

Backend Engineer Educational Platform

I participated in backend development for an educational platform similar to Mate Academy and GoIT. I developed server-side functionality using NestJS, Node.js, and PostgreSQL.

I built APIs for course, user, and progress management, and integrated analytics and notifications to support student engagement.
