About Me
I’m a passionate Software Developer and a firm believer in lifelong learning and hard work. I wrote my first line of code at 13 — in Visual Basic.
A few years back I got a Master's degree in Information Security at the Kharkiv University of Radioelectronics. There I wrote my first programs on C++. Then I switched to PHP. After studying Laravel, I landed a job with a Ukrainian startup called the International Arts Championship. In a year and a half, I learned to do everything - from setting up servers to Google optimization.
In the meantime, I earned a Master’s degree, completing my thesis on a custom PHP steganography encoder-decoder and analyzer based on the LSB algorithm. My next company was Sitecraft, where I worked as an outstaff for a Canadian customer for almost 4 years. During this time, I developed a wide range of projects — both simple and complex, independently and as part of a team.
While working at Sitecraft, I became interested in the topic of proper nutrition and wrote my own tool (Calorize) for monitoring nutrition and indicators.
After Sitecraft, I joined OpenDialog AI, where I worked on a conversational AI platform, building core backend logic using NLP and LLM integrations. Then at Cedoon, I became a lead contributor in a high-performing team, refining real-time features and architectural consistency.
Currently, I work at Landscape VC, building AI-first tools for investors, designing memory systems for agents, and orchestrating tools with modern LLMs.
Here are a few technologies I’ve been working with recently:
-
>Laravel (PHP)
-
>Vue.js (JS)
-
>LLM
-
>RAG
-
>Docker
-
>Livewire
