Skills


For Business Owners

One of the most valuable skills I have developed over the years is the ability to provide accurate time and cost estimations—two essential aspects of business—for projects.

Also, from a revenue perspective for the product, I have an experience with different business models, including in-app subscriptions, freemium, paid apps, and implementing ads within the product.

For Recruiter/Technical People

I develop with different Android Architecture Patterns (MVVM, MVP, Modularization, Clean Architecture) using TDD (Test Driven Development) approach both in Kotlin and Java languages. I also have an experience with different technologies such as Android Jetpack Components (Room, LiveData, ViewModel, ViewBinding, Navigation, WorkManager, and Pagination), Dependency Injection (Hilt and Koin), Ktor/Retrofit, as well as Coroutines/Flow and RxJava for asynchronous programming.
Currently improving my Kotlin Multiplatform and Jetpack Compose skills.
