Yuriy Timen — Business Development Executive
I build growth engines that deliver across all time horizons. Vision, strategy, culture, team, processes, tech + data stacks are the key components. I got lucky and did this at Grammarly for 9 years. It was a wild ride as we went from 10 to 450 ppl, hit 30m daily actives, grew profitably, raised $200m, and became a household name. I led a team of 40 towards the end of my time there. Since then, I've been taking a break from the rhythm of a start-up operator, while helping some incredible companies and teams unlock their growth potential. I've had the unique honor to partner with Canva, Airtable, Otter.ai, Hims & Hers, Krisp, Jumbo, Varo Bank, and others.
