- Code reviews.
- Writing tests.
- Code and database query optimization.
- Setting up Jenkins jobs and pipelines.
- Mentoring.

CarOcean is a service that offers searching and access to advertisements from the most popular moto sites in one place. I developed scripts to scrape info about the cars for each site separately and developed and maintained ways to walk over search pages and find the required info on each car page. I also deployed and maintained the service to run the scripts behind proxy servers and used a multi-threaded approach to download car images.

The project aimed to develop an alternative for Google Calendar from Mail.Ru. I contributed to the project's initial stage by setting up the app architecture and implementing recurring events. I also wrote tests, tracked errors in Sentry, and fixed them.

Lamoda is the largest Russian online store for clothes, shoes, accessories, and beauty merchandise, offering express delivery.

I developed a shared Python library for the main website, together with the cart and discount management. I also built the internal API to manage orders and coupons and integrated it with the delivery service. Before adding new capabilities, I refactored the complex monolith code into manageable pieces.
