Maksim Fedotov is a founder and senior full-stack developer with 11 years of experience building scalable web products across Ruby on Rails and modern front-end stacks. He has led product and engineering efforts at fast-moving startups and payment platform teams, driving feature delivery, process improvements, and frontend migrations from Vue to React/Next.js. As founder of Studio Shogun he shipped niche consumer platforms—most notably a VR movie streaming site and an Asian comics tracker that grew to 100,000+ users and sustained 2–3x annual revenue growth through organic adoption. Comfortable switching contexts, he introduced Vue.js to teams transitioning from mobile-first React Native apps and steeped teams in backend practices learned at ThoughtBot collaborations. Beyond code, he blends entrepreneurial instincts with operational rigor—implementing sprint discipline, refined PR reviews, and performance-focused monitoring. A Chiyoda-based martial arts and VR/anime creator, he brings product-minded engineering and a knack for building sticky communities.
