Projects

React components of the dvhb design system.

A React Native template for new dvhb mobile apps.

A power bank rental service: users find the nearest station in the app, take a charger and return it to any station. We designed the service, built the web front end and the React Native app.

Hiring and onboarding automation. Two clients and no market fit; the product was acquired by a fast-growing software company (150+ people) in sports and entertainment.

TSLint configuration for dvhb projects.

I designed a computer vision system that reads waste bin fill levels from cameras, so urban waste operators can plan collection routes around bins that are actually full.

I designed and built a real-time proof of concept on a working drilling rig: CCTV and rig sensors feed an edge server that spots risky operations, such as a drill string left without movement, and alerts the crew on the spot.

Coffee ordering for drivers and pedestrians: the app finds coffee shops on the route, and the barista has the order ready on arrival or brings it out to the car. We built the iOS and Android apps for customers and coffee shops, and the admin panel.

A catalogue for travellers and expats of places where staff speak Russian, in the US, Europe and Thailand: rentals, restaurants, shops, tours and services, with maps, filters, reviews and ratings.

A React template with server-side rendering for new dvhb apps.

In a weekend agritech hackathon, our team built a working prototype that finds fields prone to waterlogging from Sentinel satellite imagery (NIR, SWIR1 and RED bands): U-Net segmentation of the tiles, in a web app where users select an area and export the result as GeoJSON. Eight teams entered; ours reached the final four.

I helped design a computer vision system for dairy farms that used advanced pose estimation to identify individual cows. The pipeline continuously monitors their health states and rumination periods, turning physical farm activity into structured health data.

Remote party streaming during the COVID lockdowns. The market went away when they ended.

A desktop and mobile case manager for lawyers, law firms and their clients: cases, notes, text and voice messages, tasks and invoices in one place.

An icon toolset for dvhb projects.

A blockchain platform for supply chain financing in petrol trading, built for a UK-based entrepreneur targeting the Ghana market.

Our team designed and built a cross-platform React Native app that helps carriers find loads, track deliveries in real time and get paid.

A library that checks the visitor's browser and shows a warning when its version is below the site's minimum.

A JavaScript library that displays a metro map, lets users select stations and shows information about them.

A CRACO plugin that lets Create React App import modules from outside the src folder.

A template for dvhb TypeScript monorepo projects.

A CRACO plugin that adds PostCSS .pcss files to Create React App.

Open-source license manager. It failed for lack of leadership.

A front-end build tool with zero initial configuration.

Shared webpack configuration for dvhb front-end projects, later replaced by dvhb cli.

ESLint configuration for dvhb projects.

A proof of concept paid for by a manager at a US insurance broker (the broker was not our client): a mobile-first site for parametric earthquake insurance in California, with a historic quake map, premium calculator and payment, with payouts within 72 hours.

A cookiecutter template to start a dvhb-hybrid application.

Themes for open source project pages.

A simple plugin for smooth navigation between website screens.

A script that finds phone numbers on an HTML page and turns them into tel: links.

A calendar component for AngularJS.

Online smartphone robbery and theft insurance. Some revenue, small market.

Product design for an AI wealth management service that builds investment strategies from a chosen risk level and period.

A tool to open files without Google Drive Preview.

A Python library that turns source code into an HTML file optimised for printing.

Grew out of the intranet we built for Merz. Intranet SaaS for teams: a social network, documents, messenger and tasks. Some revenue and an award, no market fit.

Website and online booking for a chain of escape rooms in Los Angeles.

I contributed to the product design of a leading precision farming SaaS to help optimize crop management, field mapping, and agronomic operations.

Our team designed and built the JetSmarter website and PrivateJet, a proof of concept of a web marketplace for searching and booking private jets on JetSmarter's API.

Interface for Yota Devices' Wi-Fi/LTE router: 87 screens covering every usage scenario, for the browser and mobile and tablet apps.

Our team designed and built the intranet for Merz: feed, groups, messenger, documents and tasks. We then licensed the platform to other companies as Owork.

A Kinect goalkeeper game for Danone and FC Zenit: players stand in front of a screen and save penalty kicks with their bodies. The game ran on stands in Moscow and Saint Petersburg.

A promo Facebook app for Nestlé Fitness, built for the digital agency that had Nestlé as a client: three virtual fitness coaches and a multi-week coaching programme.

A marketplace where self-regulatory organisations in construction order inspections of their member companies from experts at universities and research institutes. Our team built it, and I later joined as fractional CPTO; the platform was built but never launched.

SaaS GIS for interactive crowdsourcing projects: city maps where residents and city officials mark places, built on OpenStreetMap. The first pilot ran in 2012. Five clients, no market fit.

A B2B service that delivered insurance policies to customers' phones: Apple Passbook, plus Android and BlackBerry through PassWallet. It sent renewal and location reminders, and gave insurers a template builder and install reports. It started as a project for a leading national insurer, one of the first to put policies in Passbook, and installs ran several times above forecast.

A professional social network for school teachers, built for a regional education department: every teacher joins their school and district groups to share materials, events and webinars. We made the concept, the interface and an invite-only closed beta.

Two multi-touch stands for Continental at an international motor show in 2012: a media centre, and a demo of its ContiIceContact winter tyres.

My first computer vision project: an interactive game stand for Nestea (Coca-Cola) in Moscow shopping malls, where players catch falling ice cubes with their bodies. We used Xbox Kinect cameras, custom drivers and OpenCV pose estimation, made the stands, and later rebranded the game for Coca-Cola.

An early iPad magazine app, built on Adobe Digital Publishing Suite.

A freelance agency in web design, software development and online marketing for small businesses, which I founded in high school and ran through university.

As a university student, I built an early e-commerce leader in pet supplies from the ground up to 4,000 SKUs and a team of 9. I managed all operations from engineering to sales, scaling the business to an exit.

A marketplace of direct sales products, connecting buyers with sellers in cities, which I launched at 15. My first e-commerce experience and $50 from banner ads, before I closed it to focus on exams.
