Summary
Maxim Zhogov is a Senior Software Engineer based in Berlin with 12 years of experience specializing in front-end architecture and scalable client-side systems. He prefers React (CSR/SSR) and Redux-Saga but retains a strong affinity for Vanilla.js and a history across Preact, Vue and Polymer, applying atomic design and monorepos (Lerna/Yarn workspaces) for large codebases. On the server side he ships Node.js services (Express/Koa) and experiments with Go in production hobby projects, showing comfort across full-stack responsibilities. He champions tooling and code quality—TypeScript, ESLint/Prettier, Jest, Cypress, Storybook—and has strong opinions on build systems from Webpack to Rollup. Experienced in both startup and enterprise environments (roles at Templafy, X5 Retail Group, Staffbase), he balances pragmatic delivery with long-term maintainability. A practical polyglot who builds CLIs and SSR apps in addition to UIs, he brings a developer-first perspective to product engineering.
