Alex Ponomarev Founder | CEO | Engineering Leader Alex knows exactly what it takes for a software development company to find its footing and grow — because he’s done it himself. As the founder of a 60-person engineering company working with global startups and financial firms, he’s navigated the full journey: building a brand from scratch, attracting high-value clients, and scaling a remote-first business across continents. That experience fuels his work at Volt Digital, where he helps other software companies win the kinds of clients they dream about. Alex specializes in bridging the gap between technical expertise and business growth, crafting positioning, content strategies, and client acquisition systems that make engineering firms stand out in a crowded market. He brings a rare combination of credibility as a founder, insight as an engineering manager, and creativity as a storyteller. From newsletters that build authority, to data-driven funnels that convert leads into long-term clients, Alex helps companies transform their knowledge into a growth engine. At heart, his approach is simple: clarity, consistency, and credibility. He knows the pain points, he’s lived them, and now he’s building the playbooks to help other engineering companies grow faster and smarter. |
