My Way in IT World

CTO at SOFYCOD · AI & Software Architect · Tech Leader

I started programming in my final year of high school. In my first year at university, I began working as a software engineer and system administrator, building software for small companies in Kharkiv while supporting IT systems on the side, always driven by the goal of building something of my own. For over 25 years, I have led engineering teams delivering reliable software for healthcare, manufacturing, hospitality, and logistics across the US and EU.

Today, my research focuses on developing a new Software Delivery Methodology for the AI Era, powered by novel algorithms for code review and validation. I am also working on control algorithms for a universal management system for mobile robots and drones using computer vision. Along the way, I built a software outsourcing business, but my ambition has remained the same: to create a truly innovative technology company with proprietary IP.
