Nikolai Shapovalov
Transformation Partner · Systems Architect
Operational blueprint + working infrastructure. One delivery.
I create Axiom SPECs — complete operational systems for businesses designed for AI execution.
My background combines capital, operations, and technology:
Founded operational businesses
Built and scaled companies in logistics, IT, marketing, and real estate development
Largest retail bank in Eastern Europe
Sales management, launched new products from zero to market
12 years in Private Banking — ex Troika Dialog
Understanding business owners: their ambitions, constraints, and what keeps them up at night
5 years in Venture Capital — QP.Digital
€5M+ portfolio. Launched in-house product studio. From zero-to-one to scale
I speak the language of capital.
I understand operational complexity.
I build the systems that bridge them.
What I Believe
SPEC = Operational Constitution
Quality SPEC is not documentation for compliance. It's the operational constitution of a company that AI can execute.
Middle-Management Obsolescence
AI doesn't replace workers or CEOs. AI replaces middle-management — the coordinators. Good SPEC + AI = these roles become redundant.
Bridge Between Worlds
I translate between shareholders (vision, capital) and the operational world (execution, systems). Intent becomes specification.
Open-Source Enterprise
Enterprise-level results on open-source stack. No Oracle, no Salesforce. Open-source bones, enterprise muscle.
Document + Machine
We don't just write how a business should work. We build systems that execute it. SPEC is blueprint. Implementation is building.
