Top SchoolRuslan Kovalenko is a Kyiv-based CEO and entrepreneur with nine years of software engineering experience and a Master’s in System Analysis, currently leading SoftTrainer to scale AI-driven soft skills assessment and role-play simulations for enterprise learning. He blends hands-on backend expertise—from building GCP pipelines and Elasticsearch migrations to API gateways and ML runtime adapters—with startup leadership in product, growth, and team building.

As Entrepreneur in Residence at Mission Possible, he pairs strategic incubation with operational delivery, often stepping into technical trenches when needed.
