Lead Frontend Engineer

Engineer with 8+ years of experience, specializing in frontend, particularly in large-scale products with complex processes. I have experience working as a lead developer in the core team of a major international product, Ultimate Guitar. I successfully worked and met key objectives as an infrastructure developer (FrontOps) at Muse, where I set up technical processes to ensure seamless delivery of development teams’ work to end users. This included project builds, CI/CD pipelines, error monitoring, internal technical notification systems, and more. In addition to technical skills, I have extensive experience in cross-team communication within a large company. I have successfully tackled tasks that involved interacting with colleagues of various levels, from developers to C-level executives. I’m developing as a T-shaped engineer. I’m interested in many areas that I study in my free time, such as architecture, process building, DevOps, and Backend.
