Yuriy Smirnov

Co-Founder

Yuriy was born in Ukraine and moved to the US at 18. He settled in Brooklyn, New York, and still lives there. He started writing code as a kid, and programming became his career: first as a software developer, then as a CTO. Over time, his interests expanded beyond products to building companies. He is a generalist with strong go-to-market and operations skills. His work has become more COO than CTO, and the COO role is his sweet spot. Yuriy has spent his entire career in startups. He has been part of many companies and started a few himself. At some point, he got lucky and built a company that took off.
