Where I drive revenue

Since 2020, I've worked at the intersection of sales, product, design and customer success — helping SaaS teams close deals, onboard clients, and grow accounts without the chaos.

30+ SaaS teams served

Successfully delivered websites, apps, and brands for products now making impact.

$1.5M+ in closed deals

Focused on growth and expansion for long-lasting partnerships

6 years in tech

Proven track record of great relationships with teams from cybersec, fintech, and web3.

How I move the needle

How I move the needle

Account Management and Sales

I own the full customer lifecycle — from onboarding to renewal. I keep accounts healthy, spot expansion opportunities early, and make sure clients feel heard without spamming your team's Slack.

Product fluency

I've sat in product roadmap meetings, filed bug reports, and run demos. When customers escalate, I don't just relay — I troubleshoot. That saves time for everyone.

Deal management

Closed $1.5M+ in project and SaaS-adjacent deals across fintech, web3, and cybersecurity. I know how to scope, negotiate, and get things signed without burning the relationship.

Customer communication

I write clear briefs, run sharp kickoffs, and give feedback that lands. Less back-and-forth, faster decisions, happier clients.

I collaborated with Artem's team on the design of both the website and Web App for my startup. They were not only on time and efficient, but also great communicators. They are engineers at heart, and I truly enjoyed our brainstorming sessions. The outcome impressed our investors and customers.

Chance Heath

When I was the co-founder of Climb, a clinical trial software startup, Artem was our primary point of contact and owned the relationship end-to-end. He quickly understood our goals, translated them into a clear plan, and kept everything moving across design and development without us needing to chase. Communication was consistent and direct, expectations were always clear, and he stayed aligned with us through delivery. We ended up with a strong final product, but more importantly, the process felt controlled and reliable. He’s someone you trust to represent your team and drive results with customers.

Randy McHugh

I worked with Artem on my marketing agency brand revamp, and the experience was excellent. He helped me solidify the vision and ensured the design team executed it exactly as expected. Artem was professional, communicative, and delivered a great final result. I highly recommend working with him.

How I found my way in

Origins

Kerch, Ukraine. 1994. Born between two seas, one landline, and zero patience for being bored.


In 2001, a 56K modem screamed its way into our house and into my life. Mom hated it as I'd take out our landline. I thought it was magic.


A whole new world on the other end of a cable, and I just had to figure out how to get in.

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, high school in English, skiing on weekends.


Back to Kerch in 2014 — older, sharper, same instinct to poke at things until they made sense.

The turning point

Later… a maritime eng. degree, 6 mo at sea as a cadet. Hated every minute - but it was the best thing that ever happened to me.


It taught me 2 things: in a metal box in the middle of nowhere, tight communication is the only thing between you and a veryyy bad day. And places where good ideas die by rank - aren't for me.


Once home, I went all-in. Moved to Odesa, started in digital at heartbeat agency. Now in Porto, fully remote - doing what the kid with the modem was probably always going to do: solving people's problems & keeping things connected.
