Web Developer at Seoslon in Krasnoyarsk 09.2024–10.2025
I was responsible for technical support and improvements of more than 30 client websites on various CMSs: WordPress, 1C-Bitrix, Joomla, ModX, as well as on the Yii2 framework and OpenCart/ocStore platforms.
My tasks included implementing new features, such as online payment integration, and optimizing existing ones--including increasing scores across all 4 PageSpeed Insights categories, with an average improvement of 40 points in performance and 30 points in accessibility and best practices. I was also responsible for project evaluation for preparing commercial proposals. Less frequent tasks included migrating websites to new hosting providers and complex data parsing using Node.js and Puppeteer to automate content collection and processing.
One of the key projects was building the online store geodemines.ru from scratch on WordPress and WooCommerce with a custom theme based on the Hello Elementor Theme. To implement functionality, I used ACF, CPT UI, WBW Product Filter, and Contact Form 7 plugins, as well as a caching system based on W3 Total Cache with custom hooks for precise cache invalidation.
My work enabled the company to take on more complex and higher-value technical projects that had previously been out of reach.
Thanks to the efforts of the entire team, we managed to set a record for monthly profit over the past 10 years. I actively participated in general planning and strategic discussions, working closely with SEO specialists, designers, and project managers.

About Me
Even before starting my career in web development, I had formed a clear set of principles. This was largely thanks to being involved in the professional community, in particular the “Web Standards” podcast, which I have been regularly listening to since 2017. I share their approach: coding according to specifications, thinking about the user, and genuinely loving your craft. These principles, reinforced by practical advice from the episodes, are something I consciously integrate into my daily work.
