Meet Andrei Danilov: The No-BS Tech Leader
I’ve led engineering teams through tricky challenges: untangling messy processes, turning tech chaos into clarity and enabling teams to deliver their best work. From startups to large enterprises, I’ve navigated complex migrations, introduced cutting-edge tech and built teams from scratch, always with a clear focus on results.
I don’t do fluffy leadership theories. I focus on what works.

Managing Tech Standards at Scale: No Drama, No Delay, No Bureaucracy
In this talk, Javier Gómez and I shared how we tackled tech standards in a growing engineering org: without creating layers of process or endless alignment or follow-up meetings.
A simple automation tool and a collaborative approach eliminated the need for top-down coordination overhead, letting teams adopt and evolve standards naturally. Less time for paperwork, more time to focus on what’s important.
I help teams move faster—with less noise.
I could tell you about my leadership style all day, but here’s what the people who’ve worked with me say instead.
“Andrei has an unique ability to channel his team’s focus towards the most critical tasks, ensuring alignment with the broader mission and strategy (…) Andrei’s leadership is marked by dedication, clarity, and a knack for getting things done.”
PAU, Chief Technology Officer
“He wasn’t just focused on delivery – he was deeply engaged in ensuring we delivered genuine value to customers. In product and design reviews, he (…) demonstrated a willingness to do whatever necessary to drive real impact.”
SUN, SENIOR PRODUCT MANAGER
“Andrei is who comes to mind when I think of managing highly performing engineering teams. He’s particularly good at growing teams and engineers into self-sufficient, well-oiled machines capable of overcoming whatever challenges come at them.”
GioRGIO, Expert Software Engineer
“I’ve seen “Andrei’s effect” in 3 teams. With him, teams communicate better internally and to stakeholders, he is specially good at bringing focus, (…) his experience in quality and data brought data-informed mindset and raised the quality of the deliverables.”
Javi, Engineering Manager
