Launch of 9 hardware products from the scratch to production line and certification
The first business challenge I faced was in 2014 - I had launched a hardware startup from scratch. For the next 3 years, as a CEO I was in charge of management and business development, product design, and negotiation. Working there, I acquired the requisite skills and knowledge in hardware development, bioengineering, and medical certification. Also, I completed my first hardware project as a PM: pre-screening mammography devices from scratch to production (including certification).

Thereafter I moved to San Francisco, CA, after selling part of my company to a Stanford-based organization named Alchemist. In my time working there I had successfully launched a production line and delivered the product to customers.

I've been very lucky to work with remarkable people in Silicon Valley, where I internalized key principles of Lean Startup, Agile, and Design Thinking.

The most immersive experience I've gained was in my latest startup. Being a co-founder, I had been actively participating in business development and product launching. At different times I served both as the CEO and PM. Working there, I’ve launched a full-circle production line of smartwatches in Ukraine.

After I sold the startup, I shifted my focus to the health insurance business, where as a CTO I’ve managed the production of software (backend, Android+iOS app) for brokers and medical workers.

Now I’m working as a CTO at the smart device for rehabilitation (crutch tips to control the load on the injured leg). Also, as a digital transformation PM, I worked for 6 months in eHealth (digital health - governmental program in Ukraine).
I'm excited about the process of creating new products that bring value to people.
