Hello, I am a web engineer specializing in building web applications, APIs, and JavaScript user interfaces. I have experience with all stages of the development cycle - from writing code to deployment and managing the application in production.
My primary specialization is SaaS applications and most of the items in my portfolio are SaaS projects.
I have experience in building full Ruby on Rails applications as well as APIs and WebSocket channels and have a clear vision of how REST API should look. Among the Rails solution stack I've been working with the following: databases(PostgreSQL, MySQL, Redis), background jobs(using Sidekiq, Delayed Job) and automated tests (RSpec, Capybara, Minitest). I am also familiar with Elixir language and Phoenix framework.
On the client side, I am proficient in React/Redux, AngularJS, and accompanying technologies: ES6, Webpack, Gulp, Jasmine/Mocha tests, etc.
I have experience with all stages of the development cycle for dynamic web projects including application deployment (Custom server/Heroku/Amazon) and managing in production.
Feel free to reach out to me anytime. I am looking forward to building your awesome web project together!

Slava is far and away one of the strongest engineers I've ever had the chance to work with in my 15+ years of building software products and teams. He is a thoughtful, skilled software engineer and contributor. He asks all the right questions to thoughtfully build systems not just to spec, but for the future of the business, ensuring that code quality remains high and that the projects can continued to be iterated on rapidly well into the future. He's been working for us for more than three years now, and I look forward to continuing to work with him for as long as he'll have us!
Slava has been one of the most excellent individuals with which I've had the opportunity to work. Not only is he a competent developer, what makes Slava so great to work with is all the other intangibles. His willingness to jump on any project. His thoughtfulness about what would make the product better and business successful. He's both a capable leader and developer. Whatever project you bring him in on, he will make you feel like he's a partner. He has a great attitude and I hope we will continue to work together for years to come. If you have the opportunity to work with him, you should jump on it.
Slava is a very experienced, knowledgeable and responsible professional to work with. His broad expertise allows him to ramp up with new projects very quickly. What I especially liked about working with him is that he always strives to do things the right way - code quality, stability and test coverage are something that he keeps a close eye at, thus our clients with technical background had the most positive feedback regarding his work. All in all, Slava proved to be a great team member as well as a team lead - he was leading the development in quite a few projects that we had within the company. I’d highly recommend Slava as a very skilful developer.
Slava was my go-to coder for a Rails app in production during a couple of months. I was very happy working with Slava. He always understood my requirements fully and even thought ahead suggesting solutions to unforeseen problems. He was not afraid to tackle a broader field of issues and tech : from FE to DevOps. He is a man of effective words : he communicates when it's relevant - not more, nor less.
Slava is one of the best programmers I have ever met if not the best. I highly recommend him.
