EPM-TIME
The primary usage of EPM-TIME is to record hours spent on a task for a particular project. EPAM had an older version called PMC. My team implemented a new front end and back end for the app. Initially, I maintained the front-end side alone before being joined by two extra junior developers. I then played the lead front-end developer role on my team.
I created the view from scratch, including styles (not design) using HTML, CSS, and logic. I contributed to the behavior of the app, the selection of tools, and ideas to increase performance. I shared tasks between the front-end team and guided junior developers.
Within a short period, our app performance increased by 300%. It proved to be bug-free and was loaded with new features compared to the previous one. The app is currently in production. EPAM shareholders were very impressed by the progress made. I received several thankful notes.

EPM-CTC Assistant (July 2016 - January 2017)
This app is responsible for tracking expenses, planning budgets, and providing data to accountants. The EPAM-CTC assistant is utilized by thousands of every day. The flexible and key financial options of the app make the assistant a very important internal tool.
I was part of the front-end developers and implemented new features, adjusted existing parts, and fixing bugs. App performance was enormously boosted. The application loaded and rendered pages much more quickly with no necessary Ajax calls. The easy-to-navigate interface was bug-free. Users were very satisfied with a new look and performance.
