Vlad Shostak

I sit close to the customer, learn the problem better than anyone else in the room, and ship what actually gets bought.

Five years and four promotions at J.B. Hunt. Tech lead at a Microsoft-backed AI company serving Fortune 500 brands. Then Novastone: cold outreach, closed deals, delivered work. One SaaS product bootstrapped to profitability and sold.

Today I’m fractional CTO at Garfinkel Group, LLC, and building my own products. Same through-line: understand the need, sell the solution, deliver.
