Work experience

Graphics and Systems Programming

from 12.2014 to now (9 years 5 months)
Innovations

I was hired to work on Visualiser for the Reservoir Modelling simulator of the company. Stone Ridge Technology needed visualization of 1 billion cells geology. I contributed to the visualizer, which made it possible to achieve the goal. Visualizer is WebGL-based. It was run in the browser what made the record of visualization of 1 billion cells geology even more difficult to reach. In the company I have been advocating TDD, cost-effective expansion of the team, and the first-principle approach.

3D Graphics Expert

from 10.2013 to 12.2014 (1 year 2 months)
Upwork, Киев (IT)

In that period of my life, I had numerous small and mid-scale projects, primarily the graphics-related ones.
Art for a car. Music visualization.
Vectorization of raster. Barn customizer.
Infographics design.
3d visualization for a medical CAD application.
3d visualization for an architecture application.
3d visualization for 3d modeling software.
Generating vector files for 3d modeling software.
GUI for 3d modeling software.

That is a short list of tasks I was lucky to work on.

Software Engineer

from 08.2012 to 10.2013 (1 year 2 months)
Samsung Electronics, Киев (IT)

Samsung was my experience of work at the office. I had been working in the department of wow effects with many other young engineers. We had been designing graphical applications for Android. Also, I worked on physical engine development: soft body simulation, rigid body collision. Besides, I have dealt with graphical algorithms: 3d rendering, image processing. Some applications were cross-platform: solutions that are executable on both Windows, Linux, and Android.

Software Engineer

from 02.2012 to 08.2012 (6 months)
Private Person, Киев (Marketing, advertising, and PR)

The project was related to data mining. I was responsible for data scraping from numerous sources into a single centralized database.

Hobbyist

from 09.2003 to 05.2012 (8 years 8 months)
Non Commercial, Киев (Free time)

Programming is my passion. I started to learn and practice programming far before I earned the first dollar. My learning was practice-driven, the theory went after. When I studied at school, I developed my first video game. Further, at the university, I worked on several applications I had in my mind. During my first years there, I developed a native server-client application for students’ examinations. Over the last years, I learned parsing/compiling and developed the program for visualization of math expressions.

Additional information

Hi, I am Kos, a Software Engineer based in Kyiv, Ukraine.

I am tech-savvy who loves solving technical problems and working with talented people.

Most of my experience is related to NodeJS and Graphics. My forte is writing in cross-platform applications. Rust is my new favorite language and I can see the future for it and want to associate my future with development on Rust. Blockchain is my new favorite hobby where I see myself as a core developer.

During my career, I worked as a software engineer for several companies which are leaders of industries. I am a person who likes to see things from different angles and have lots of fun bringing out-of-the-box solutions. I see hardworking, trust, and support as stone keys to the success of a team. I prefer to be responsible for the result and have an opportunity to share my knowledge and love with others. I feel more comfortable with a company and a team that is aggressive about its expansion rather than cautious. I prefer to stick to TDD and the best practices required for the success of the long-term project.

My experience ranges from research, development to application. Areas of expertise include the following:

- For Blockchain
Smart contract development, testing, and deployment.
Creating web-based front ends to interact with smart contracts.
General advising needs.
Crypto/Bitcoin, Ethereum / wallets, and cryptocurrency investment apps

- For Web Development
Developing WebGL, OpenGL, WebGPU applications.
Systems programming

- For the game development
Analysis of your game design document
Isolating MVP
Hypothesis validation
Development of a prototype

- For the development of your startup or business
First-principle analysis.
Hypothesis-driven validation.
On-site to remote work transition.
Cost-effective extension of a team.
Talents sourcing.

Among my hobbies are mentoring and organizing local events motivating people to learn. I like to encourage people around me to develop themselves. In my free time, I enjoy extending my knowledge in Linear Algebra, Abstract Algebra, Type Theory, Group Theory, Logic and Algorithms. I am also keen on practicing Piano as it proves to keep brain plasticity high. Jogging helps me to cope with stress. Psychology helps me to understand people. Philosophy helps me to understand the world and reflect. Learning and reading books is the highest luxury I can afford.
