Ways I
can help you.
Pick your problem. I have a solution.
CTO as a Service
Start HereBest for: Startups post-funding that need technical leadership yesterday.
Your startup needs a CTO but can't afford a $300k/year hire. I step in as your fractional technical leader — designing how your product is built, setting up automated deployment pipelines so updates go live safely, hiring and managing developers, running weekly development cycles, and making sure your tech decisions today won't cost you tomorrow.
What you get
- Technical architecture (how your product is structured under the hood)
- Team hiring, onboarding, and mentoring
- Automated deployment (code goes live without manual uploads or prayer)
- Weekly development cycles & delivery tracking
- Choosing the right tools & services for your stack
- Technical due diligence (what investors check before writing a check)
Don't need a full retainer? I also do one-off consulting — architecture reviews, technical audits, hiring help. Sometimes one conversation saves months of wrong turns.
MVP & Product Development
Best for: Founders with a validated idea and a launch deadline.
You have an idea and a deadline. I turn it into a production-ready product in 8–12 weeks — not a prototype that falls apart, but a real system with payments, auth, admin panels, and deployment pipelines.
What you get
- Full-stack web application (front-end + back-end — everything users see and everything behind it)
- Database design & API architecture (how your data is stored and how systems talk to each other)
- Payment integration (Stripe, crypto, custom)
- Admin dashboard & analytics
- Cloud deployment (your product hosted, live, and accessible worldwide)
- Documentation & handoff
Bots & Automation
Best for: Teams drowning in manual work. Operations that should run themselves.
Telegram bots, Discord bots, WhatsApp integrations, workflow automation — if your team does something manually more than twice, I can automate it. From simple notification bots to complex multi-step business logic.
What you get
- Telegram / Discord / WhatsApp bots
- CRM and tool integrations (API-to-API)
- Automated reporting & notifications
- Data scraping & processing pipelines
- Zapier/Make replacement with custom code
- Scheduled tasks & background workers
Payment Systems & Fintech
Best for: Products where money moves — marketplaces, SaaS billing, crypto.
I've built payment infrastructure from scratch — card issuance, crypto wallets, subscription billing, marketplace payouts. If money moves through your product, I know how to make it work reliably.
What you get
- Stripe / payment gateway integration
- Subscription & recurring billing logic
- Marketplace split payments
- Crypto payment flows
- KYC/AML compliance integration
- Transaction monitoring & reconciliation
Real Estate Tech
Best for: EU agencies and PropTech startups replacing spreadsheets with systems.
CRM systems, property listing platforms, management dashboards. Built for EU agencies and PropTech startups who are tired of spreadsheets and WhatsApp groups.
What you get
- Property listing & search platform
- Agent/client CRM
- Automated lead capture & follow-up
- Property management dashboards
- MLS / listing feed integrations
- Client portals (buyer/seller/tenant)
DevOps & Infrastructure
Best for: Anyone whose deployment process involves prayer.
Servers, deployments, monitoring, telephony, automation tooling. The unglamorous work that keeps everything running. I set it up once, properly, so you don't think about it again.
What you get
- Server setup (where your product actually runs)
- Docker containerization (packaging your app so it runs the same everywhere)
- Automated deployment pipeline (push code → it goes live, safely)
- Monitoring & alerting (know when something breaks before your users do)
- Telephony & communication systems
- Cloud cost optimization
Something Else?
Best for: If none of the above fit — but you know you need technical help.
Business doesn't fit into neat categories. Maybe you need a technical audit of your existing system. Maybe you need someone to interview and vet developer candidates. Maybe you need to migrate from one platform to another, set up analytics, build an internal tool, or just figure out what the hell your current dev team is actually doing. I've done all of that and more. If it involves code, architecture, or technical decisions — chances are I can help. Also: if things already went sideways — a developer ghosted, a project stalled, a codebase nobody understands — I've been there before. I'll tell you what you have and what to do next.
Things I've been asked to do:
- "Our dev disappeared — help us understand what we have"
- Rescue a failed project
- Architecture review before fundraising
- Technical audit of an existing codebase
- Platform migration (legacy → modern stack)
- Interview & vet developer candidates
- Internal tools & admin dashboards
- Analytics & tracking setup
Not sure which applies to you?
Most engagements combine 2–3 of these. Let's talk.
I work solo.
I don't ship solo.
You talk to me. I bring the people.
When a project needs more than one pair of hands, I bring in people I've shipped with before. Not strangers from a freelance marketplace. Design, dev, infrastructure, QA — whatever the project needs. I vet them, I brief them, I manage them.
My last project had 18 people across design, dev, and ops.
One Slack. One weekly sync. One person running it: me.
One point of contact. My responsibility.
Full-Scale Membership Platform
Built the entire digital infrastructure for a California-based organization — two parallel product lines, one team. Membership tiers, payments, online store, event scheduling, community platform, and a driver delivery system. From first commit to production.
2 product lines · 6+ months · Full ownership from architecture to deployment
Fintech — Virtual Card Platform
Payment system where users load crypto and spend via virtual cards. Full pipeline: KYC verification, compliance checks, transaction processing, card issuance API. Built the entire backend — not a wrapper around someone else's SDK.
Full payment pipeline · KYC/AML compliance · Card issuance integration
AgriTech — Farm Operations System
Replaced spreadsheets and manual logging across multiple farm locations with a real-time operational system. GPS fuel tracking per vehicle, automated shift logging with geofencing, performance-based bonus calculations. The kind of system where getting the data wrong costs real money.
Real-time GPS tracking · Automated payroll calculations · Multi-location
PropTech — Real Estate CRM & Listings
An EU real estate agency was running their entire operation on spreadsheets and WhatsApp. Built them a proper platform: listings, agent CRM, automated follow-ups, management dashboards, client portals. They stopped losing leads.
Lead pipeline automation · Agent & client portals · EU market
GovTech — Procurement Data Analytics
Analytics platform consuming Ukraine's national procurement API (Prozorro). Automated extraction and processing of large-scale public purchasing records, anomaly detection, compliance reporting. The data volumes were genuinely large — this wasn't a startup dataset.
National-scale data processing · Prozorro API integration · Compliance analytics
EdTech — University Rankings Platform
Data science and analytics platform for ranking Ukrainian higher education institutions. Data collection, processing pipelines, scoring algorithms, and public-facing ranking dashboards. One of the earliest large-scale projects — built for Forbes Ukraine.
National university rankings · Data science · Forbes Ukraine
Telegram Bots & Automation — 20+ Projects
20+ Telegram bots across 6 countries and 5 industries. Inventory alerts, crop monitoring, marketing automation, order management, customer support. Some are simple notification pipes. Some run complex multi-step business logic that replaced entire manual workflows.
20+ bots shipped · 6 countries · Agriculture, e-commerce, marketing, operations
What I
don't do.
Knowing what I'm NOT doing is just as important as knowing what I am. This filters out bad fits early.
I pick proven tools that won't lock you in or fall apart at scale. The specifics only matter to engineers — skip ahead if you're not one.
Your Product
- React / Next.js
- Node.js
- Python / FastAPI
- TypeScript
Your Data
- PostgreSQL
- MongoDB
- Redis
Your Infrastructure
- Docker
- AWS
- CI/CD (GitHub Actions)
- Cloudflare
+ Stripe, Telegram API, WhatsApp API, Twilio, OpenAI, Google APIs, GraphQL, WebSockets, REST — whatever your product needs to talk to.
Deliberate
choices.
Not trends.
“Your stack doesn't matter.
Your architecture
decisions do.”
Three steps.
That's it.
You Talk, I Listen
Book a free 15-minute call. Tell me your business problem — not your tech wishlist. I'll be honest about whether I can help and what it will take. No agenda, no pitch.
I Propose
Within 48 hours you get a clear plan: architecture, timeline, team needs, and pricing. No 30-page decks. No bullshit. A real answer.
I Deliver
I embed with your team, set up processes, and ship the product. Weekly updates, full transparency. I own the outcome — not just the code.
The short
version.
I started building software before most people start thinking about careers — not because I wanted to be a developer, but because I had problems to solve and code was the fastest way to solve them. Eight years later, I've shipped more production systems than many engineers twice my age.
Eight years and 30+ projects later, I've built everything from Telegram bots for farmers to payment platforms for fintech startups to full-scale membership systems for US organizations.
BSc in Computer Science from Kyiv Polytechnic — the top technical university in Central and Eastern Europe, founded 1898. Based in Europe, covering EU and US East Coast timezones.
I take on 2–3 clients at a time.
Every engagement gets deep focus.
Every project I take gets the same focus I'd give my own product.
Because my reputation ships with every deployment.
