At Matrix Industries, I built two responsive websites. One is an amazing product (a watch that is powered by your body heat) launch website, and the other was needed for the project fundraising. My role was to implement the design, custom widgets, custom business logic, and some integrations (Mailchimp and referrals). The most amazing things I did over there were:

• 360-degree product animation on scroll (product overview section)
• Custom slider on scroll with document hold on mouseover (customize section)
• Custom chart for funds raised (crowdfunding section)
• Custom progress of the referral program (on the referral page)

The design was done by my colleague Serge Zuev (one of the best designers I've ever met).

As a key developer for the nScreenAds platform, I contributed to both server-side and front-end components, collaborating closely with another developer to create a robust online advertising platform. Leveraging technologies like .NET Core, jQuery, Unobtrusive Ajax, Bootstrap, CSS, Web API, MVC, PostgreSQL, TFS, and Jira, we developed an integrated system that facilitated seamless API interactions with various advertising platforms. My role was pivotal in implementing functionality to aggregate bid data in real time from an S3 bucket, ensuring timely data availability for decision-making processes. The platform we developed empowered users to create and fine-tune advertising campaigns with precision, offering targeting capabilities akin to those found in Google Adwords. This project not only challenged me to apply and expand my full-stack development skills but also provided valuable experience in handling large-scale data and creating user-centric solutions in the competitive advertising technology sector.

I was hired to implement A/B tests in VWO using jQuery and CSS on Magento-based websites. I constantly exceeded expectations and got lots of praise for my speed. The job was perfect for me, since it combined programming, design, and marketing.

Turbo-Strapp—a device that monitors fitness information and sends it to the Turbostrapp platform. I worked on the platform and the landing page as full-stack developer (C#, ASP.NET, Azure SQL, jQuery, Angular, Bootstrap, CSS, HTML).

Furniture store website based on NopCommerce (SQL, Asp.net, jQuery, CSS). I was responsible for adapting it to the customer's needs as well as design and online marketing. I constantly exceeded the performance indicators and improved visits, engagement, and time spent on the website. I used Optimizely for A/B testing.

Apollo Jukebox is an intranet website (built with Kirby CMS (PHP), HTML, JavaScript, and Bootstrap 3) which allows users to create an audio files database for whenever they need inspiration. The live analyzer was made using Web Audio API and the waveform was extracted with FFmpeg.

eCommerce website using NopCommerce. I was involved in design and implementation, back-end automations, import/export, shipping estimation, and online marketing.

Online platform for printer asset management using maps.

CopyFill Technologies business website.

A Shopify-based eCommerce website. I was a Shopify developer and did a really in-depth refactor to optimize the loading speed and reinforce the best practices on the code. I also introduced Cypress.io testing and automatic minification on the CI pipeline and built a React product configurator that was a major hit.

I resolved critical performance issues with a custom 3D engine for product previews, revamped product pages under a tight deadline, and updated product options to reflect new definitions. The client was highly satisfied and later returned for a major website refactor.

I implemented A/B testing and custom design solutions that doubled the conversion rate to nearly 3%, a significant achievement for an eCommerce business. Additionally, I updated the custom theme settings to accommodate new business logic and improve flexibility, all while keeping maintenance costs low.

I implemented a full website design and customized the theme to meet the client's requirements. From the drawer cart to discount systems, every aspect was tailored specifically to the customer's needs, and everything is now adjustable from the admin side.
