# About Artem Blazhievskii

Strong advocate of the "One Person Framework" philosophy. Rails 8 keeps me fast and efficient: ActiveRecord, Hotwire, Solid Trifecta, and Kamal remove friction, allowing me to ship value from UI to server deployment with less code and maximum efficiency.

With a background in Business Information Systems (BS/MS) and 5 years of CS/ICT teaching experience, I approach development business-first. BDD and a focus on real user needs keep every feature grounded in value. Ruby lets small teams win big. Whether launching new products, expanding features, or solving scaling issues, I bring ideas to life.

Working globally, remotely.
