PROFESSIONAL PROFILE

Engineer with a double degree from École Centrale de Lille and MIREA (Information Systems Engineering), with more than 9 years of experience in Full-Stack software development, systems architecture and digital product creation.

Driven by a systems approach (First-Principles Thinking) and a deeply multidisciplinary profile, I bridge pure software engineering (back-end architectures, data infrastructure, DevOps), interactive user experience (modern front-end, visual design) and emerging technologies (AI automation, multimedia systems and hardware prototyping). This cross-cutting vision allows me to design, integrate and deploy complex products end to end (0-to-1 / MVP) with a high degree of learning and execution autonomy.

Motivated by solving concrete problems and by teamwork, I am looking for high-impact projects where technology addresses real human, infrastructure, health or environmental challenges.

PERSONAL R&D PROJECTS & EXPERIMENTAL ENGINEERING

Beyond corporate code, my curiosity constantly drives me to explore, take apart and build in my free time. These personal projects reflect my learning autonomy and my cross-disciplinary engineering approach:

  • Sound, Music & Generative Visuals: Classically trained musician (trumpet, French horn) — winner of numerous young musicians' competitions in Moscow and participant in local, national and international festivals with orchestras (2000–2008). Passionate about electronic music (EDM), I explore sound production in Ableton Live (VST chains, MIDI routing, synthesis) and the creation of real-time interactive visuals with TouchDesigner.
  • DIY Electronics, Lighting & Fabrication: Enjoying working with my hands and connecting code to the physical world — design of custom lighting systems (ESP32, WLED microcontrollers, light flow control), electronics soldering, 3D modelling (FreeCAD), mechanics and bicycle modification.
  • Image, Cinema & Sport: Mastery of the entire visual creation cycle (photo/video capture, lighting, editing and colour grading in DaVinci Resolve and Adobe PS/LR). Prize winner in the "Student Press" category at the Moscow Student Creativity Festival 2013. Regular practice of freediving, cycling and strength training.
