CTO
as a Service.
8 years of shipping. 30+ projects. Zero ghosting.
I solve business problems with code.
Not the other way around.
From Telegram bots to fintech platforms to 18-person team builds. US, EU, and Middle East clients. I design systems that scale and teams that ship.
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 architecture, setting up CI/CD, hiring developers, running sprints, and making sure your tech decisions today won't cost you tomorrow.
What you get
- Technical architecture & system design
- Team hiring, onboarding, and mentoring
- CI/CD pipelines & deployment processes
- Sprint planning & delivery management
- Vendor and tool evaluation
- Technical due diligence for investors
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 (React/Next.js + Node.js/Python)
- Database design & API architecture
- Payment integration (Stripe, crypto, custom)
- Admin dashboard & analytics
- Cloud deployment (AWS, Vercel, Docker)
- 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 & configuration
- Docker containerization
- CI/CD pipeline setup
- Monitoring & alerting
- 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.
Things I've been asked to do:
- Technical audit of an existing codebase
- Interview & vet developer candidates
- Platform migration (legacy → modern stack)
- Internal tools & admin dashboards
- Analytics & tracking setup
- "Our dev disappeared — help us understand what we have"
- Architecture review before fundraising
- Rescue a failed project
Not sure which applies to you?
Most engagements combine 2–3 of these. Let's talk.
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 with a cross-functional team of 18.
18-person team · 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

Legend
Three steps.
That's it.
You Talk, I Listen
Book a 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.
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, no surprises. I own the outcome — not just the code. No disappearing acts.
What working
with me looks like.
Paraphrased from real conversations. Names withheld, but the work is verifiable.
We needed someone who could think about the product, not just write code. He rebuilt our entire architecture in weeks and stayed until it was solid in production.
— Founder, membership platform · California, US
We had a half-built payment system and a deadline. He came in, understood the problem in one call, and delivered a working pipeline faster than our previous team delivered a spec document.
— CEO, fintech startup · Turkey
I expected a developer. I got someone who asked better questions about my business than my business consultant. The bot he built replaced three hours of daily manual work for my team.
— Operations director, e-commerce · Germany
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 Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute — Ukraine's top technical university. Based in Europe, relocating to Spain mid-2026.
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.
