In his words

Why project delivery, not staff augmentation

It would probably be easier to earn in the popular outstaffing model — lending people out to other companies’ projects. Maybe simpler, though it has its own catches. But projects are what charge me up. I once felt a real rush from a launch: working as a project manager, together with developers and testers we shipped several products in an intense stretch. The energy from the result and from a team working in sync was enormous. A launch gives you a sense of being part of something big. And along the way we always deepen our own knowledge and broaden our view of other domains — medtech, fintech and so on — which is hugely motivating: you get to understand how business works in different fields.

Why we created YuSMP Group

In your own company you choose the people you want to keep going with — motivated people who want to work for the result. I see colleagues as interesting individuals and like-minded people. At the final stage of hiring I personally interview everyone who joins. It matters to me that each person shares the company’s values and mission — that’s what gives the energy to keep going.

The company mission

What are a mission and values even for? YuSMP Group’s mission is to build working, technological products that are useful to people. I want to see our products live and actually get used — we build interesting projects and the people who use them, not work for the sake of a paycheck. A mission unites the company and gives it a direction, a vector. We aren’t just employees in an office; we’re a movement that gets to change the world for the better. Values help form a team of like-minded people and filter out those who would get in the way. The same goes for clients — sometimes it’s better not to start than to make the work unbearable for both sides. That way everyone understands each other better, there are fewer questions and delays, and we work faster and to a higher standard.

The team

How we attract and keep developers

First, it’s substantial, interesting projects and non-trivial problems — developers are motivated by work that grows them. Second, a culture where people are heard, where you can influence decisions and see the impact of your work. We invest in learning, keep the atmosphere friendly, and pay fairly for experience and results. People stay where the work is meaningful and the team is one they want to be part of.

Where the company will be in five years

A stronger product portfolio, deeper expertise in the domains we care about, and a team that keeps its bar high as it grows. We’d rather grow deliberately — keeping the culture and the engineering standard intact — than chase headcount for its own sake.

Data security & confidentiality

Every engagement starts under NDA. We treat client data and access with the same rigor we apply to our own systems — least-privilege access, secure handling, and clear boundaries. Security isn’t a checkbox at the end; it’s part of how we build.

The challenges we face

The interesting problems are rarely the easy ones. Ambitious products come with hard constraints — scale, compliance, tight timelines, evolving requirements. We take them on with clear architecture and honest communication, and we say so early when something needs rethinking. That’s what keeps the second year in production as calm as the first.
