Testimonials

“Proficient is a word I’d use to describe Ilya. He is solely responsible for maintaining a legacy app, keeping it updating with key contributions, while working as a primary IOS resource on a separate new app build. I know when I see Ilya’s name assigned to a story ticket, it is in safe hands. This remarkable, multi-talented app developer is someone I’d be happy to work alongside on future projects!”

“Great developer, really knows his stuff when it comes to mobile development using React Native. He really understood how to structure a React Native app for optimal maintainability. It was well written with unit tests and he taught other developers best practices in mobile development, TypeScript / JavaScript and GraphQL. He also setup and maintained CI / CD pipelines using CircleCI and Bitrise. Great testament to Ilya’s hard work and professionalism.”

How it Works

  1. You set requirements

    You send a specification with a detailed description of your project, we discuss and agree. Please include designs and relevant information.
  2. I deliver fast

    Relax and track progress as I get development done in just a couple of days, one task at a time (average 48 hours per task). Stay in close contact or sync with me on weekly calls.
  3. Extra changes, for free

    Need changes? No worries. I guarantee working on the task until you are 100% happy.
  4. All Done?

    If you run out of dev tasks, you can cancel or pause our contract. For example, if you had only 7 days of work in a month, you can pause the contract and unpause later, and we will continue working from where it left off.
