Bio
Peter Myklebust
Leonid is that rare technology leader you would trust to build and deliver highly complex, solid software. I worked with Leonid for 11 years, during which time he led multiple geographically distributed product development teams, tasked with delivering mission-critical pieces of our platform. Leonid and his teams came through every time. As his manager, I knew that if he and his teams took on a job, there was one less thing to worry about. Not a big surprise; he was an organization builder and a maker of complex software long before we met. Leonid is a constant learner, eager to learn and apply both new technologies and new ways of managing people and teams. Do you need complex software delivered? I can highly recommend Leonid.
