Alex Simonov

I’m a seasoned software professional with 18 years of experience building robust applications, leading development teams, and shaping tech strategy at the executive level. I excel at quickly understanding complex systems, making sound technical decisions under pressure, and owning the full development lifecycle—from architecture to deployment.
