We think about the product, not just the ticket
Flows, user experience, edge cases — we pay attention to the stuff that makes a feature actually work for people, not just pass review.

Engineering notes from mobile, backend, and product work
How We Built Alva's Risk Detection Engine with pgvector and OpenAI
Alva's backend turns ingredient lists into personalized risk assessments using vector similarity search, multi-factor AI scoring, and health profile matching. This is how we built the detection pipeline and why we made the architectural choices we did.
How Builder Prime's iOS app supports offline clock-ins and estimates
Builder Prime is a strong example of mobile product engineering for real-world field conditions: offline clock-in and clock-out, estimate editing, queued sync, and ID mapping that keeps work moving when connectivity is unreliable.
About the studio
Sergey Dikarev leads wilder.dev studio
wilder.dev studio is led by Sergey Dikarev — a product engineer who came up through mobile development and project management and now works across iOS, Android, web, backend, and AI products. Most of the work lives in that messy zone between product decisions and actual code: architecture, new features, fixing what slows things down, and making sure the whole thing still makes sense six months from now.
Code that does not fight the next feature
Good architecture means the next thing you build lands cleanly instead of turning into a week of cleanup.
Senior engineers on real problems
The wilder.dev team is strongest on native apps, backend systems, operational software, and AI products where you need someone who has been through it before.
Relationships over one-off sprints
Our best projects run for months or years because the work keeps getting more useful, not harder to maintain.
Reviews
What product teams say after shipping together
Reviews from Workmax, Biomeme, Babylist, and Ruvio highlight dependable delivery, native mobile depth, thoughtful product input, and collaboration that lasts beyond a launch.
Russell Hanson
CTO at Workmax
Sergey has done a tremendous amount of work for our company over several years and is very dependable. He is very skilled in mobile native iOS development. He built a complete product for us from the ground up, added features to the product through several versions, and helped maintain the product through several versions. He really felt like he was just part of our engineering team and we treated him as such. I would not hesitate to hire him at all and most likely will hire him again in the near future on other projects.
Max Perelman
CEO at Biomeme
It was such a pleasure to work with Sergey and his team. He is on call 24*7 and adheres to every request we made in spite of us deviating from our original product spec. In addition to a strong technical skill set, Sergey also makes very good suggestions on the UI and UX front. I would rehire Sergey in a heartbeat and if things go right, I may just hire this guy full time.
Noah Solnick
Director of Software Engineering at Babylist
I worked with Sergey for over a year on a project to rebuild our iOS and Android apps. Sergey was excellent as an individual contributor as well as manager of two additional remote devs on the team. We released multiple features on a monthly basis with minimal challenges. Sergey was reliable, communicative, and a pleasure to work with.
Ruvio / Layzeer Scanner
Eduard Friesen
Ruvio and Layzeer Scanner
Working with Sergey felt like adding a real product partner to our team. Across both Ruvio and the Layzeer Scanner app, he helped turn complex finance and document workflows into mobile experiences that are dependable, clear, and genuinely pleasant to use. He moves quickly, communicates well, and stays thoughtful when scope changes or new ideas appear midstream. I would gladly work with him again on future products.
