Software Engineer focused on building applications for professionals.

I’ve been developing web applications and interfaces since 2016. If you are building a product with a small team and need help with performance, unfamiliar problems, or legacy codebases, contact me at kirill@myshkin.eu and we’ll set up a call. Or let’s meet in Milan for a coffee.

I will make your UI faster. Analyze its behavior, pinpoint what makes it slow, and suggest mitigation strategies.

Legacy codebases are often avoided because they drain productivity and morale. I will figure out and document the most complex parts of your codebase, and turn it into a simple module that has a clear explanation of the problem.

Hard, unfamiliar problems often come at an unfortunate time. I will figure out the problem and implement a solution using your tech stack. If the problem is outside the realm of your UI library of choice, I’ll build it using vanilla APIs. I won’t force frameworks or methodologies on you; instead, I’ll make both the problem and the solution clear for your team so they can continue development on their own.

My approach is to first find the essential problem to solve and organize the codebase to arrive at the solution in the most direct and simple way. That reduces complexity, allows to optimize performance where needed, and leaves behind a clear and maintainable codebase.

Featured work

TikTok Shop Profit Tool for AMS Pilot (2025)

During the R&D phase, developed several prototypes for a novel product, helping find the most compelling offering. Designed and implemented interface and integration with two APIs.

PCM Simulator for Sintesi Labs (2020–2023)

Adopted the project from a previous agency. Turned a mixture of practices and styles into a homogeneous codebase, manageable by a single developer. Organized system in reusable components to allow rapid development, reducing release time from weeks to days. Implemented three generations of redesign for two car models.
