About Me & Current Situation

I'm Maxim, a full-stack developer with 20+ years building e-commerce platforms and custom web solutions. I've delivered 200+ projects - from Shopify stores to proprietary enterprise platforms.

Currently, I'm driving Uber to cover bills while building websites at night. I know I can bring massive value to the right team, and I'm ready for my next chapter.

I understand that major retailers and enterprises need custom solutions - not off-the-shelf tools. That's where I thrive.
