Yury Semerikov leads Telgorithm's always‑on platform, powering millions of mission‑critical telecom messages daily. His passion for programming began in middle school, and by high school, he had already built his first online store as a freelance project. He earned his degree in Mathematics, Mechanics and Computer Science at the Ural Federal University, simultaneously tutoring math and programming.
Early entrepreneurial and technical experiences brought him to ServiceTitan, a rapidly growing Los Angeles startup, where he spent over seven years driving telecom innovations. Collaborating closely with Aaron Alter, Yury led high‑impact projects like Phones Pro, significantly enhancing user experience and technical excellence across the team.
In 2021, driven by the opportunity to redefine telecom infrastructure for the U.S. market, Yury co‑founded Telgorithm. As CTO, he architected a highly available, cloud‑native AWS platform powered by Kubernetes, .NET 9, PostgreSQL, Elasticsearch, and robust GitHub Actions‑based automation.
His flagship contribution, Smart Queueing, efficiently orchestrates millions of daily A2P messages, dramatically improving message delivery and compliance management. Yury also spearheaded the integration of AI tools like ChatGPT into both internal processes and customer‑facing solutions, accelerating development, enhancing support, and innovating product features. Telgorithm has proudly maintained zero platform‑caused downtime since launch.
Yury's team encapsulates his philosophy in the "Triple S" principles: Stability, Simplicity, and Serenity—building solid foundations, elegant solutions, and sustainable work rhythms.
Now based in Atlanta, Yury is raising two fast‑growing "children": his young son and Telgorithm. Both inspire him daily, demanding his full attention and fueling his passion for creating a meaningful, lasting impact.
