Kirill Bubochkin

I am a mobile and web developer with over 10 years of experience. Currently, I’m specializing in mobile development (both native and cross-platform), but I was working as a frontend and backend developer as well, so I know the development process from each side.

I’m working as a Head of Mobile Development at Mews, so creating the architecture, code reviewing, mentoring, and integrating best practices is a part of my everyday job.

Currently, I’m mainly interested in Flutter. We have an application written in Flutter that is successfully running in production for more than a year.

If you need help with defining the right architecture for your mobile app (both from back-end and front-end sides) or looking for a mentor / code reviewer, feel free to contact me in LinkedIn or Twitter and let’s have a talk.
