Vladimir Malov starts with his role at an installment-finance service, then traces a varied career: writing Sunlight's first mobile app, growing through analysis, team leadership, and product work, followed by X5, Lenta, and Utkonos. His early interest in the iPhone shows how a technology wave can become a career lever.
Moving from engineering into product expanded his responsibility to include the domain, money, and management constraints. Entrepreneurship taught him to treat shareholder funds as his own, size risk against a financial runway, and distinguish building a business from selling the same hours under a services contract.
Vibe coding lets Vladimir build products quickly without assembling a large team. In a live demo he moves from an idea and specification to a todo app with authentication and search, uses Lovable, and explains why technical breadth helps a builder direct models as developers, designers, and researchers.
These tools already reach beyond a sandbox, while architecture, security, and verification remain the author's responsibility. The closing section connects sustainable output to changing activities, health as a source of energy, and meeting people outside one's circle to acquire different ways of seeing a problem.
