• Developed realistically looking, physically based shader for real-time rendering of gemstones.
• Improved performance of the 3D viewer with automated generation of InstancedMesh, whichincreased rendering speed 3-6x for jewelleries with hundreds of gems.
• Optimized setup of postprocessing step of the pipeline, further improving performance by reducing amount of unnecessary draw calls.
• Developed demo pages for new customers to showcase the tech.

Nottingham, England, United Kingdom

Developed an electron based desktop application as a part of partnership with 3rd party startup. The app acts as a command center allowing to connect to multiple cameras and orchestrate the process of psychological assessments observing participants from different angles.Implemented a multi-window desktop app architecture which keeps UI and the state of.

Nottingham, England, United Kingdom

Developed brand new features and maintained current ones for psychojs - a web counterpart of PsychoPy tool based on pixi.js. It acts as a web renderer for projects / experiments built by researchers in the area of psychophysics and neuroscience and allows to run those experiments online.Implemented multi-touch support for mobiles. Implemented GIF based.

Developed a custom surveying platform which allows to import surveys from Qualtrics - a popular surveying solution in the field of psychology and many others. We've built a solution on top of SurveyJS library thus providing all the same features plus some custom ones.Implemented.qsf format support - file format which describes Qualtrics surveys and allows.

United Kingdom

Implemented GPU driven particles system animated by 3D Perlin noise. It features an interesting looking effect, making it an eye catching, mesmerizing experience. The result can be seen live.Utilized three.js based mesh sampling utility, which allowed to extract 3D points on the surface from the mesh for initial particles positioning.Optimized the.

Delivered a set of algorithmic and architectural optimizations for a startup with 3D apartment visualization and design product.Improved rendering performance by 50% through code refactoring and optimizing in-app search algorithms to O(N) complexity. Some of the internal components and classes were rewritten to reuse resources, which allowed faster scene.

Nizhniy Novgorod, Russia

Developed a physically accurate sky and clouds simulation based on rendering techniques used by AAA game studios like Epic Games and Rockstar Games.Reverse-engineered D3D11 code samples and ported the techniques to WebGL, enabling real-time, high-fidelity atmospheric rendering in the browser.The project utilizes same or very similar techniques to the ones.

Built a Jupiter-like atmosphere simulation shader, which was planned to be a part of VR experience.Implemented a set of shaders including 2D fluid dynamics using gpu gems article and a volumetric renderer of the cloud-like substance.Shader is driven by the audio with data being extracted using web audio api. The result can be seen on vidina's youtube.

St Petersburg City, Russia

Developed a 3D knowledge map visualizer and it's administration system.Improved 3D model loading performance by 10x by optimizing search algorithms and utilizing buffer geometry data type of three.js (back then, they weren't default).Built an administration app from scratch using vanilla JavaScript and SASS for styling. UI featured user management.

St Petersburg City, Russia

E-commerce project, front-end development for cosmetics oriented store.Implemented UI components for products purchasing. Optimized performance of the shopping items list loading.Project was written using Vue 2.1 and SCSS.

Nizhny Novgorod

2D space exploration game with in-house game engine built from the ground up with Pixi.js as a renderer.Implemented a 2D collision detection and resolution algorithms which support processing of any convex hulls.Developed AI navigation system which uses an obstacle avoidance algorithms instead of path-finding, which allows for more resource efficient NPC.

Nizhniy Novgorod, Russia

Onboarding of a new customer, a telecom software company from Calgary. I was the main developer to conduct initial customer onboarding, establish team relationships and bring the knowledge and tech back to our HQ.Went to a business trip to Calgary, where I've spent a couple of weeks getting familiar with the team and the product. Conducted knowledge.

Nizhniy Novgorod, Russia

Development of the Cloud based Telephony administration system.Designed front-end architecture of the application from the ground up. The resulting system was essentially an in-house front-end framework which relied on jQuery, vanilla JS and SaSS.Implemented drag-n-drop based IVR (interactive voice response) tree editor which allowed to easily setup voice.

Nizhniy Novgorod, Russia

Tool for bulk user update on remote system with no API.Multithreaded console based app written in C# using.net framework.The app allowed to update users on remote system acting as a human user and generating appropriate html form submissions. Output of the user settings conversion process to logs. Configurable amount of threads.

Nizhniy Novgorod, Russia

Development of live presentation tool on mobile from the ground up (mobile web app).Designed the architecture of the app.Implemented custom smooth scrolling with inertia (at the time only iOS had that).Implemented smooth menus which accurately follow the thumb and respond respectively to the speed of gesture (snappy or gradual).Implemented resource.
