Vladislav Meshkorudnyj

Development / Mentorship

Hi! I'm Vlad — a developer and mentor.

I build backends, set up pipelines, and integrate LLM agents.

About me

For six years I've been writing software and teaching others to write it — mostly in Python. Sometimes as part of a large team, sometimes solo end-to-end. More often it's backend (DRF, FastAPI, SQLAlchemy), sometimes bots, scripts, scrapers, and desktop apps. Over the last year I’ve shifted to AI agents: chatbots, RAG, MCP, and agentic pipelines. I enjoy projects that align with my interests and values: education, AI safety, open data, and mental health. Here you can browse examples of my projects and my work experience, as well as read feedback from clients and students. I’m open to opportunities — feel free to reach out via the contacts below (or above).

“I highly recommend Vladislav for his exceptional work in creating a Telegram bot for our cryptocurrency project. He demonstrated a high level of expertise, professionalism, and attention to detail throughout the project. His deep understanding of Python, the Telegram API, and cryptocurrency exchanges and APIs was critical in creating a reliable bot that provided our users with real-time alerts. His communication and updates were prompt and frequent, and he consistently exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend Vladislav for any project that requires expertise in developing Telegram bots or web parsers.”
