Applied AI Researcher & Developer at 8D-1
Haapsalu, Laane, Estonia
Summary
👤
SeniorIvan Sokolov is an AI evangelist and product-builder with eight years of experience taking ideas from concept to production while owning both product strategy and technical implementation. He has repeatedly launched agentic and conversational AI systems—from an AI Image Editor that cut design costs by $40k/year to an AI Interviewer that conducted 5,000+ interviews—and builds pragmatic tooling that measurably improves operations. As a founder and former CPO in crypto and media startups, he combines product-led growth instincts with hands-on engineering, shipping NFT integrations, wallets, and trading products that scaled to hundreds of thousands of users. Based in Estonia, Ivan favors "vibe coding" to iterate rapidly and designs systems that balance autonomy with measurable business outcomes. He’s comfortable across architecture, analytics, and UX, and quietly specializes in turning repetitive human workflows into low-cost, human-like AI services.
