Nick Nagatkin
Founder at Digis, a Fiverr company (NYSE: FVRR)
San Francisco, California, United States
Summary
👤
SeniorNick Nagatkin is a founder and former software engineer based in San Francisco with 11 years of experience building startups and scaling talent operations. Over a decade in recruiting he helped place roughly 5,000 hires and led a venture (Digis) that exited to Fiverr (NYSE: FVRR), blending deep hiring expertise with operator instincts. He transitioned from hands-on engineering roles into repeat founding—running conferences, advising the Ukrainian Startup Fund, and now launching a stealth AI startup. Nick combines product-focused technical judgment with a rare operational fluency in recruiting and company-building, often betting early on teams and markets. He’s comfortable toggling between code-level problems and CEO-level decisions, which informs a pragmatic, growth-oriented leadership style. A likely underappreciated strength is his track record of converting recruiting scale into strategic company outcomes, not just hires.
