Senior PHP Developer

I have developed Facebook application for Domino's Stuffed Crust Quest campaign. The app invites user to follow clues in Domino's blog, with new quests being announced at different times of the week. I have contributed to the UX design and the overall implementation of the campaign. The campaign was a success. I have since been part of the end-to-end delivery of the campaigns for the most prominent agency accounts: Domino's Pizza, Hewlett-Packard and Thomas Cook.

Developed a proprietary platform for launching and managing social media campaigns. Secured contracts with major brands, including Helwett-Packard, Domino's Pizza, Tesco, Thomas Cook and Universal Pictures. Oversaw design and development of a broad range of social media campaigns.

Founder

Researched, designed and developed a data aggregation and distribution platform. Project details confidential.

Software Architect

Responsible for developing an ad server, Data Management Platform (DMP) and integration with the demand-side platform (DSP).

The Ad Server is unique in a way that it is using device MAC address instead of IP to track user activity. It is a backend solution with integrated analytics and ad targeting by device type. The primary objective is to build an ad platform that could function behind a Wi-Fi walled garden.

Peripheral duties include developing creative strategy for advertisement – location, weather and temperature or time based targeting and adCAPTCHA to name a few.

Raised venture capital, formed advisory board and developed relationships with major exhibitors, studios and distributors. Negotiated and signed data-licensing contracts in North America and EMEA.

Applaudience aggregates cinema data across Europe and North America. We analyse transactional and customer data and discover opportunities to change audience behaviour.

Co-Founder, CTO

I have singlehandedly developed Wi-Fi platform MAMA (Mac Authentication Management Application). New system improved existing Wi-Fi service stability, ensured scalability, extended the product proposition, monitoring and reporting capabilities. Following the update, Arqiva Wi-Fi won/extended contracts with a number of airports (Heathrow, Edinburgh, Glasgow), hotels (Travelodge, Premier Inn), restaurants, pubs and other retail chains, including public Wi-Fi in local councils for major UK cities.

I've designed the database, APIs, setup and maintained the servers. I have prepared the frontend development guidelines and introduced Wiki (Confluence), CI (Bamboo, Travis CI, Coveralls) and bug tracking (Jira) into the development environment. I have introduced principals of OOCSS, CSS pre-processors, developed and standardised common UI components across all the sites (form validation, error handling, etc). I have taught the accessibility requirements.

I've developed Wi-Fi landing pages for

Web Platform Architect

In addition to handling all of the development, server and databases administration, I am being consulted about the UX in the pre and post design stages, as well as the creative and legal aspect of the campaign development. Furthermore, I am responsible for the delivery cost and time frame estimations.

Senior Developer, Technical Director

Identified speed issues with the advertising platform that are affecting the revenue. Built a proof-of-concept platform that improved ad loading time from an avg. (90th percentile) 6 seconds to under 3 seconds.

Observed a large size of the home page (20-30Mb). Implemented lazy loading of the images. The change decreased page size to 5Mb-10Mb. Thats bandwidth (=CDN cost) saving worth ~20Tb/daily.

Integrated the existing blogging platform with Google Live Blogs (https://developers.google.com/search/pilot/open/live-blogs). This enabled http://www.dailymail.co.uk/ to provide feed about live events (e.g. sport events) directly in Google search results.

Written a new live blogging platform that solved the existing stability (due the database of choice) and scalability issues (due to WebSocket and CDN restrictions). The new application leverages the cloud infrastructure to scale the WebSocket server and MySQL RDMB as a database. I have used this project to introduce the team to technologie
