Vlady Yakovenko

Designer with a strong engineering background, mostly interested in complex interfaces, technical systems, and tools that need both structural clarity and visual judgment.

I still make music and visuals, and that practice feeds back into the software work. The through-line is fairly consistent: systems, notation, timing, interaction, and tools that are shaped around how people actually work.

Product Designer

XTEL

Leading redesign work for advanced analytics software, turning dense enterprise workflows into clearer product directions and a more coherent design language. My engineering background helps keep proposals realistic, implementation-aware, and developer-ready from the start.

Senior Frontend Developer

XTEL

Owned frontend architecture for promotions-optimization interfaces used in FMCG and retail contexts. Worked across Angular, RxJS, TypeScript, and SCSS while bridging data science, product, and UX on data-heavy workflows where clarity really matters.

Ongoing

Founder

Patcher.xyz

Built and continue to run an open-source product from concept to community: product direction, UX, frontend architecture, backend choices, releases, and user feedback loops. A long-running proof that I like owning hard problems end to end.

Frontend / Android / UX Engineer

Otre Solutions

Worked across manufacturing software for warehouse management, supply-chain planning, and production monitoring. The common thread was translating operational complexity into interfaces people could actually use day to day.

Ongoing

Electronic Music Producer & Live Performer

Freelance

Long-running creative practice in experimental techno, modular synthesis, and live AV performance. It is separate from my software work, but it strongly informs how I think about systems, rhythm, interaction, and tooling.

Android Engineer

GESP

Early R&D work on a computer-vision project aimed at speeding up logistics data entry — a short engagement, but a useful introduction to product constraints outside straightforward CRUD apps.
