Project History
AppGear | iLobby
https://www.ilobby.com/iLobby is a visitor management system designed to streamline the check-in process and enhance security for organizations across the globe. Serving clients in over 45 countries, iLobby facilitates a smooth visitor experience through an integrated system that includes a user-friendly web portal, web-API services, and dedicated iOS, Android, and Windows applications, along with support for peripheral devices such as card dispensers and ID scanners.
Focused on the needs of large enterprises, iLobby was engineered to tackle the complex business problem of managing high volumes of visitors while maintaining stringent security protocols.
As a full-stack developer, I developed and maintained web services and the corresponding front-end interfaces. My efforts in configuring the Azure infrastructure were crucial to handle the significant data throughput required by our client base, some of which processed more than 10,000 visitors daily.
The collective input of our team and my contributions to developing critical components of the software significantly impacted iLobby's functionality and reliability, contributing to its success. This is evidenced by iLobby being named the best visitor management system in 2019 by Tech Times.

Exsensio | Hydra
https://www.youtube.com/@exsensiooy8659/featuredDeveloped a test automation framework for electronic devices, enhancing back- and front-end applications. My efforts transformed an ineffective framework into a functional product, resulting in four successful client deliveries and establishing a CI/CD development environment. I migrated the back end to .NET Core and the front end to a React-based Electron app, significantly reducing memory leakage and stabilizing the system. I also introduced new terminology, simplified user experiences, and launched a zero-config app running concept.
My proposals led to the development of new modules like Stations and Data Analytics, and I set up an Azure pipeline for CI/CD processes. Additionally, I implemented a distribution and licensing mechanism for the Electron app, integrated with keygen.sh, and continuously optimized key performance metrics, reducing test times significantly. I played multiple roles in this high-load system, facing countless device and sensor requests. Among other things, I oversaw the team and worked on full-stack development and product architecture, demonstrating versatility and commitment in a startup environment.

SharePoint | Tengri BPM
Returned as a software architect to a company known for business process automation and transitioned traditional eDoc solutions into a low-/no-code business process management system. This was a shift from the company's original focus. Tasked with system design and team leadership, I introduced EventStorming to gather complex requirements efficiently and adopted DDD for its intricate domain.
Through iterative development, we achieved a smooth and predictable workflow. My role evolved to focus on upfront design, architectural oversight, and refining development processes with minimal coding involvement. I advocated for modern work methodologies, transitioning from Gitflow to trunk-based development to better suit our needs and streamline testing and release procedures. This strategic pivot significantly enhanced team agility and overall productivity.

DISQO | Survey Junkie
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/survey-junkie/dnfbbeblcdlfnoneibihgklodmlkimfoOur team embarked on a critical project to revitalize our browser extension, ensuring its future viability and enhancing functionality. We initiated this journey by transitioning from the outdated MV2 framework to the more robust MV3 standard, shifting our codebase from JavaScript to TypeScript. This foundational upgrade paved the way for continuous improvements.
At the heart of our endeavor was a comprehensive redesign of the extension's architecture, transforming it into a configuration-driven system. This pivotal change minimized our dependency on web stores like Chrome Web Store, markedly improving user event conversions, system flexibility, observability, and reliability. This strategic overhaul allowed us to provide a vastly superior user experience independent of external platform constraints.
A key aspect of our project's success was the integration of rigorous unit and integration testing within our advanced CI/CD and DevOps practices. This quality assurance and deployment approach streamlined our release process, reducing bug occurrences and operational costs and demonstrating our team's dedication to excellence.

LifeInOrder
https://lifeinorder.com/An Electron-based app for managing personal information, such as finances and healthcare data. As a solo developer, I had to pick up the full technical ownership and transform an MVP into a production-ready application. I had to fix bugs, make critical architectural decisions, and develop new features. I automated testing and release processes to offload chore stuff and focus on the actual product. All this resulted in increased sales and a higher product run rate.
busypipe - Social Intelligence Platform
https://busypipe.com/A platform that turns noisy social data into a clean, structured signal worth acting on. I designed and built it from the ground up, with the core engineering in the data layer: ingestion pipelines that collect raw social data at scale and cleaning pipelines that normalize and structure it reliably and cost-efficiently. Now live with its first users.
