What clients say
Nikita is a rare professional that can do anything from hands-on frontend engineering to managing, hiring, team-building and building a great culture. Needless to say everything is done with a huge smile which makes both ups and downs enjoyable.
Yevgeny Pats, Co-Founder & CEO at CloudQuery
We worked closely together with Nikita at Spotify. He is an extremely experienced and skilled developer. Never scared to propose new solutions and lead the development process. I was so impressed to see his detailed-oriented level of implementation. Very enthusiastic about making changes, with a "let's do it" attitude. Always joining user interviews and understanding the importance of it. A great pleasure to have a developer like Nikita on my side. And last but not least, Nikita is super fun to work with, always bringing a smile to the team!
Magda Reyman, Multidisciplinary Designer + Art Director
I've had the pleasure of working with Nikita for a while now, and during his time in my team he has proven to be a valuable team member! Not only does he have a deep and thorough knowledge of software development in general and frontend technologies in particular, he's also a straight shooter who doesn't shy away from bringing up potential areas of improvement, whether be it in the team as a whole or for me as a manager. If you want to work with someone who knows what they are talking about and are not afraid to tell you when they disagree, then I can nothing but recommend working with Nikita.
Jonas Å., Improving organisations since 2009
I have had the opportunity to work with Nikita while he has been a contractor working in my team at DICE. In his programmer role he has proven to me that he is a committed, self-acting and a trustworthy co-worker, and very productive. He is a machine! He is not afraid to take on any task, and he is also good at closing tasks. As a person he comes across as genuine, vibrant and humble. Thanks to Nikita I have enjoyed many different edible treats that he has brought to the office from different corners of the world. Nikita is one of the highest rated contractor developers on my personal list that I have worked with. I would gratulate any company that has the opportunity to employ Nikita in the future.
Kit Johnny Eklöf, Producer / Product Owner at DICE (Electronic Arts)
I've had the pleasure to work together with Nikita on both Battlefield 1 and Battlefield V. He has done a great effort improving the quality of our code base by driving the task to introduce snapshot testing and by helping out with internal tech initiatives. He has done everything from regular grunt work to presenting good and bad practices on our weekly frontend meetings. Nikita has been a top player on our team, and I was sad to see him go when the project was completed. I wish him all the best and hopefully we'll have the chance to work together again in the future.
Markus Kristo, Senior Software Engineer at Electronic Arts (EA)
During his time with us, Nikita has shown himself to be a stellar web and front-end developer who can quickly grasp and discuss complex ideas and transform them into high quality, well-tested code. He was a valuable member of our team and I would definitely work with him again.
Arsenij Vodjanov, Development Manager at Delta Projects
I had a chance to work with Nikita on a complex digital product where user experience depends on building unique and intricate interactions. Nikita brought his experience and ability to solve tricky technical challenges with curiosity, inspiring other colleagues to keep up and deliver a great result.
Valentin Loschinin, Enabling the shift to circular economy
Nikita is a passionate and skilled developer that cares immensely about product quality both from functionality and usability perspectives. I hired Nikita to be part of creating NetEnt's critical and awesome Live mobile product. He worked with our team for one year. He kept his promise and helped the team to take a full and unified ownership of quality that encouraged the developers to take a lot more responsibility in assuring high quality deliveries. Nikita has current knowledge about front-end technologies and never holds back from sharing his knowledge and experience with the team. He suggested and pushed for various tools and frameworks to increase the product performance. Nikita is a hardworking and fun person. I would highly recommend him, as he naturally rises to the occasion when presented with something he is passionate about.
Fayan Pourisa, Head of PSO Appmod, EMEA @Google Cloud
Nikita is a highly skilled front-end developer with a passion for creating beautiful solutions all the way from architecture to user experience. He keeps up to date with what is happening in the open source community and is happy to share that knowledge and to push for tools and libraries which could simplify or increase the performance of a solution. In the project where we worked together those suggestions were often implemented, and in my opinion they improved the result a lot! As a person he is happy and helpful, with a lot of humor. I hope that I'll have the chance to work together with him again some day and think he will bring a lot to any front-end project.
Kent Larsson, Experienced software developer | Self-employed, only contracts
Nikita is a great person. Also he is a great manager. He is able to operate with a lot of different simultaneous tasks, discussions, conversations. He can get first requirements from the non-IT people and convert them to an understandable format for his team. Nikita is always open to tasks' discussions, so we always can find a best solutions together. There is always very positive aura around him and around all people who is working with him.
Sergey Kuznetsov, Software Craftsman
Nikita is a good manager and very charismatic person. He knows how to inspire the team.
Yaroslav Lozhkin, Evil Martian designer
Nikita is the brightest CTO i've been working with. He's very result oriented and is able to manage development tasks with deep understanding of general business processes, open in communications and always ready to provide constructive feedback. For me it was a great pleasure to work with Nikita.
Evgeny Gasnikov, Head of Global Expansion | Personal AI for real estate investors
Nikita is an extremely skilled and product-oriented technical genius. He is best product manager I've ever met. As a bonus, he is wonderfully positive and erudite.
Oleg Kozyrev, Founder of Para, LocalKitchen, Rocketbank and Groupon Russia
Nikita is always looking for a way to optimize business processes. We share belief that developing games is a science, not art, and it can be managed like any other production cycle. At Beenza Nikita gathered a team of stars and motivated them.
