About
I’m Ivan. I started as an iOS developer in 2020. Since 2022 I have been at Raccoon Gang, where I am a core contributor to the Open edX mobile app and build client apps in education, finance and insurance.
Along the way I kept automating my own work. First a GPT code reviewer and a Figma-to-code generator, then whole pipelines. Today my main project is Bulava, where Claude Code builds and Codex reviews until the work is accepted. I’m also building a dark factory at Raccoon Gang.
I care about evidence more than demos: measured times, tests the engine ran itself, numbers with their caveats. That is the standard for the articles here too.
