Professional Summary
Front-end / HTML-Markup Developer

A mature developer who started their career in HTML / Markup Developer and
built solid proficiency in JavaScript (Angular, Vue.js, AngularJS, React).
Throughout my career, I've covered diverse Software Engineer (Frontend with
Angular, Backend with PHP/SQL, Data Analytics (Implementation, data collection
and cleaning).

Professional Experience
Software Engineer at OWOX | 2016 – March 2025

I joined the company as an HTML/CSS Coder in the Marketing department,
where I worked on corporate websites (including company information and
conference sites), email newsletters. I transitioned to a JS Developer role later,
focusing on corporate sites and the OWOX BI product (using Polymer and
AngularJS).

I also actively collaborated with the Rozetka team on enhancing the rozetka.ua
e-commerce project.

In recent years, I worked as a Software Engineer on the OWOX corporate
website using PHP (support and development of a custom framework), SQL
(MySQL), Smarty Template Engine (PHP templating engine for view rendering),
JS (Angular, Vue), HTML5, and CSS3. I was fully responsible for the site's
operation and new feature implementation (excluding dedicated DevOps tasks). I
also maintained and developed the Admin Panel and the internal HR system.
Key Achievements:

●​ Email Optimization and Standardization: Improved email display
(including mobile versions) to ensure correct viewing across different email
clients. I created my own build tool (Sass, HTML, JS, Handlebars) to speed
up the layout process, and later successfully implemented the Foundation
Emails (Zurb) framework to scale and standardize the workflow.​

●​ Refactored existing code from the MooTools framework to clean, modern
JavaScript (Vanilla JS). This significantly simplified future maintenance and
improved the performance of the client-side application.​

●​ Initiated the migration of the large Admin Panel codebase from
AngularJS to modern Angular, ensuring product continuity during the
transition.​

●​ Implemented an internal Angular Page Builder in the Admin Panel, which
solved the slow content addition problem and significantly accelerated the
workflow for non-technical users (writers, designers).​

●​ Contributed to the redesign of Rozetka.ua and the subsequent
implementation of Angular technology (interface component division and
realization of "dumb" components).​

●​ Created a client-side performance analytics CLI tool based on the
Google Lighthouse API.​

●​ Systematically improved website performance and Core Web Vitals for
the corporate site.

HTML / Markup Developer at KTTSoft | 2013 – 2016

Gained foundational Web Development knowledge and experience in creating
various client-side web solutions.

●​ Converted design mockups into cross-browser code for e-commerce
platforms like Opencart, Magento, and Symfony projects (HTML,
Bootstrap).
 ●​ Collaborated with a Backend Developer to create a ready-made product
assembly (based on Opencart) to simplify client migration from Prom.ua to
their own online store. Reduced the online store development time from
several days to 2-3 hours.

Technical Skills
Core competencies:
●​ Frontend Fundamentals: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (ES6+), Git
(GitLab/GitHub).
●​ Architecture & Workflow: SASS/SCSS, Gulp, Webpack, Vite, API
Integration, Refactoring (Core/Codebase).
​
Proven experience:
●​ Frameworks & Libraries: Angular, AngularJS (Legacy Codebase), Vue.js,
React, Bootstrap.

Soft Skills
●​ Adaptability & Learning: Proven experience in successfully changing
roles and migrating between technologies (AngularJS → Angular,
PHP/SQL).​

●​ Proactivity & Ownership: Proactively engage in feature and epic
discussions. Initiated the development of the Angular Page Builder to
optimize the work of cross-functional teams, demonstrating strong
ownership.​

●​ Collaboration & Process: Effective experience working independently
and with diverse teams, including those with/without QA support, and
non-technical staff (writers, designers). Proficient in Scrum and Kanban.​
 ●​ Self-Sufficiency: Demonstrated ability to manage the full development
and support cycle for key web projects (excluding dedicated DevOps
tasks), reflecting a high level of responsibility.

Professional Endorsements
I worked with Yurii as his team lead at OWOX in 2022–2025. Before that, since
2016, Yurii had been successfully working as a frontend engineer in another
team.

During our time together, Yurii proved himself as an engineer who is ready to
grow, expand his skills, and take on new areas of responsibility.

Examples of his contributions:

●​ Reducing technical debt: he migrated legacy frontend code to vanilla
JavaScript, which significantly reduced technical debt and lowered the
onboarding threshold for new team members.​

●​ Marketing-enabling as part of the Growth team: he built tools that
allowed the marketing team to manage the lead-generation website
independently. This noticeably reduced the time needed for experiments
and campaign launches.

Behavioral qualities:

●​ open to feedback and consistently improves communication quality;
●​ responsible with deadlines and always brings tasks to completion;
●​ values a healthy team environment and contributes to constructive
communication.
