Origins
Kerch, Ukraine. 1994. Born between two seas, one landline, and zero patience for being bored.
In 2001, a 56K dialup screamed its way into our house and into my life. Mom hated it - I'd occupy our phone for hours. I thought it felt magical.
An entire universe on the other end of a cable, and me, impatient to break into it.
Recall the sound?
Going places
As a teen: soldering robots, DC++ swaps, IRC friends I'd never meet, trading pirated game discs. It was clunky, slow, but now that I look back kind of amazing.
In 2009, the family moved to Rapid City, SD. First real job at 16, American high school vibes, skiing on weekends, collecting rocks.
Back to Kerch in 2014 - older, sharper, same instinct to poke at things until they made sense.
The turning point
Later… a maritime El. Eng. degree, 6 months at sea as a cadet. Turns out the ocean is best appreciated from land.
Sea taught me two things: tight communication keeps you alive, and rigid hierarchies kill good ideas.
Came home, went all-in. heartbeat in Odesa, Deepengine in Porto in-between AM, product, and design, which sounds like an identity crisis but mostly just means I care about the whole picture.
Still that curious kid with the modem. Back then I waited for the connection. Now I create them.
