In early 1930s, Rubanchik was part of the Leningrad-based ASNOVA (Russian: АСНОВА; abbreviation for Ассоциация новых архитекторов, "Association of New Architects"), an Avant-Garde architectural association in the Soviet Union, which was active in the 1920s and early 1930s, commonly called 'the Rationalists'. Designed several projects of factory-kitchen buildings, such as the factory-kitchen of the Vyborg District of Leningrad. In 1933-1941 was director of Workshop 1 of the Leningrad-based State Institute of Urban Design (GIPROGOR).

In 1935 Yakov Rubanchik released a project of reconstruction of Taganrog.[3]
