Program manager

Hi, I'm Anatoly 👋

I'm a tech guy. After graduating from Bar-Ilan University in Israel with a B.Sc. degree in Math and CoSci, I began my career as a Technical Architect consultant. Before starting Supernova in 2022, I co-founded two other startups – a social drinks/gifting platform and a social game on Facebook. 

Most of my experience lies in integrating existing legacy systems with new products, optimizing and improving complex distributed systems, as well as upgrading and transforming old digital services to the latest technologies, with a vision into the future.

A majority of my consulting work is done with small and medium-sized banks in the U.S., helping them to transform their old online and mobile banking application into new, cutting-edge applications, with integration to third parties APIs and new Fintech advancements.

In 2022, I began my own entrepreneurial journey into the field of IT staffing/consulting with a focus on helping companies seamlessly recruit talent worldwide, creating the ultimate virtual team. 

My dm's are always open! Feel free to reach out about anything IT related or if you just want to say hello.

Startup & Growth Leader | Former CBO, Truly Financial | GTM, Partnerships & Ecosystem | Fintech, SaaS & Payments

I’m a fintech and SaaS growth executive with 20+ years of experience building and scaling platforms across North America, Asia, and the Middle East. I’ve co-founded and led ventures in cross-border banking, B2B payments, and HR SaaS, always with a sharp focus on SMBs and mid-market enterprises.

At Truly Financial, I launched and scaled a digital banking platform in the U.S. and Canada — growing to thousands of customers in 3 years, cutting CAC by 250%, and boosting onboarding conversions from 30% to 70%. At Remitr, I built Canada’s first B2B cross-border payments platform, with thousands of customers coast to coast, and won awards from BMO Bank, NTT Data, and DMZ.

My core strengths are in:

• Go-to-market & Partnerships: Creating scalable acquisition engines and ecosystem partnerships with banks, fintechs, accelerators, and accounting firms.
• Embedded Finance & SaaS Expansion: Building API-driven platforms, co-branded partner programs, and integrations that open new distribution channels.
• Brand & Lifecycle Marketing: Positioning, storytelling, and CRM-driven lifecycle campaigns that expand LTV and retention.
• Ecosystem Building: Leading founder programs and VC/enterprise bridges, most recently with SaaSBoomi U.S., curating GTM roundtables and community-led growth initiatives.

I thrive at the intersection of financial services, technology, and growth strategy — whether scaling fintech platforms, building partner ecosystems, or enabling startups through community.

My career foundations were in building software and leading technology transformations. At FACT Software, I helped launch India’s first multi-user accounting system and expand into Southeast Asia. At Allindia Technologies, I spearheaded digital transformation projects and launched Batchmates.com, one of India’s earliest B2C online communities. Later, as CIO at Electrosteel, I modernized IT systems and turned around a business unit to profitability, and at Intellisys, I led product marketing for a cloud-based learning platform. These early experiences gave me a strong technical and product base that continues to shape my leadership approach today.

Very incisive analysis of what makes a16z tick. Had to take a break halfway through to let it all sink in.

This is such a noble gesture by team CloudTax 👏

Partnering with Brands & FIs to Embed Personal Tax Filing Solutions | Certified by CRA | CloudTax

Some of the most meaningful product decisions don’t come from growth plans.
They come from discomfort.

For years, we’ve seen business owners pay hundreds of dollars to file a corporate return that literally says “no activity.”

That never sat right with me.

I’m really proud of the CloudTax team for pushing on this, challenging assumptions, and building something simpler and fairer.

Today, we’re rolling out Pay What You Want pricing for eligible corporate nil T2 returns, including $0. 🎉 

No noise. No pressure.
Just a better way to handle a required filing.
This is why we build.

Canada, let’s stop lamenting and start celebrating what’s working.

I don’t understand why Canada should be upset about the YC decision.

They did what’s best for them.

Yeah, the spin isn’t entirely what they say but if Canadian founders don’t want to stay/grow here and want to go to the best markets to raise and to scale … isn’t it obvious that the problem lies elsewhere?

Truth is that raising in Canada is harder. Market access is harder.

The ecosystem is there but cannot compare with the sheer dynamism, innovation and risk-taking that defines the US. 

Does that mean it’s gloom and doom in Canada?

Far from it.

Instead, it should stop trying to mirror others’ structures and institutions, and create its own.

Stop lamenting and start celebrating what’s good.

Build durable companies that have roots here but wings everywhere.

That’s the only way to make Canada proud.

Kudos for your frank perspective Jeff Adamson.

Love the no bullshit approach to this topic!

Thanks Jeff Adamson

This is how hackers hack your brain. I must unfollow this guy. 🙏😅

Governance and Compliance Infra for Agents

Writing this on behalf of Claude code. I think Ankit Pansari called this out sometime back. At this point, I don't want ebooks, decks and PDFs or landing pages. The only format I care about is markdown. 

Rest everything else is just extra tokens and extra steps. Matter of time - every marketing asset would have a mark down format - exclusively curated for agents. It doesn't matter when you are building agents. What matters is if you are also building for agents.
