I'm Yegor Bugayenko (Russian: Его́р Бугае́нко), a programmer, founder, investor, and philanthropist.
As a founder and CEO of Zerocracy, a software engineering and management platform with an absolutely unique methodology called XDSD (watch this video). Most of the ideas behind the methodology I explained in my book Code Ahead. I'm the author of a few patent applications, including Puzzle-Driven Development (PDD) Method and Software and Method for Software Cost Estimating Using Scope Champions. I'm a certified Project Management Professional (PMP®). Besides that, I'm a proud holder of RUP, PRINCE2 Foundation, MCP, and COSMIC certificates.
As a programmer, I write mostly in Java, but also in Ruby, PHP, and JavaScript (watch this). I'm the founder and lead architect of Zold, Cactoos, Takes, and Rultor. Here are [my favorite books]({% pst 2015/apr/2015-04-22-favorite-software-books %}) about software engineering, and a detailed description of [my work environment]({% pst 2017/jun/2017-06-27-my-environment %}). I'm an Oracle Certified Master and Java EE 6 Enterprise Architect (OCMEA). Besides that, I'm a proud holder of ZCE, ZFCE, and OCUP certifications. I've also written a book series about object-oriented programming, called Elegant Objects, plus a few other books, and founded a movement for better OOP.
As an investor at SeedRamp.com, I've made a few investments, but I've got no results yet :)
As a philanthropist, I donate a few thousand dollars every year (started in 2015) to the best open source project at the time, which I pick myself out of about a hundred in a more or less fair competition.
Here is my resume and its longer and boring version.

By the way, this is what some people think about me and this blog: testimonials (18+, be careful!).
I'm also visible sometimes at BLOG@CACM, DZone, JavaCodeGeeks, Hacker News, Reddit, and Medium.
Ah, one more thing. I'm a big fan of good movies, so here's [my list]({% pst 2014/apr/2014-04-06-movies-for-thanasis %}) of the ones I would recommend you watch. Also, here is my list of favorite fiction books.
