Summary
Igor Barzhak is a Development Team Lead based in Berlin with 12 years of experience building and modernizing web and mobile products across backend, frontend, and cross-platform domains. He moved from PHP/MySQL back-end work into a front-end and full-stack focus, mastering React, TypeScript, Node.js and leading a migration to micro-frontends while introducing A/B testing and CI/CD practices. At AUTO1 Group he now leads development of a scalable React Native app for iOS and Android, improving performance and enabling faster delivery across teams. He combines hands-on coding and architecture with mentoring and onboarding, routinely performing code reviews and writing technical documentation. Pragmatic about maintainability, he emphasizes clean, testable code and incremental modernization rather than big-bang rewrites. His unusual blend of economics training and deep technical craft helps him balance product impact with engineering cost and scalability.
