Senior🎓
Top SchoolNik Makhov is a seasoned frontend developer with 11 years of experience building performant, user-focused web applications, primarily using React, TypeScript and modern JAMstack tools. He has driven large projects at Auto.ru and Mail.ru/MediaProjects—owning mobile, catalog, billing and design-system work—and currently develops search and admin tooling at VK/Dzen. Nik is framework-agnostic by practice but prefers React/Vue ecosystems, and has repeatedly improved team workflows by introducing standards like BEM, Cypress testing, and CDN/font tooling. He spearheaded a shift from legacy stacks to React/TypeScript and proposed JAMstack landings that measurably boosted performance, and he also builds fast-growing consumer projects such as Dom.mail.ru. Comfortable across engineering, release and lightweight project management roles, he focuses on readable, reusable code and sharing knowledge to lift team velocity.
