Maria Kuznitsyna

PM turned developer turned solo founder. Spent years running high-tech teams and enterprise systems, then quit in 2025 to build my own thing instead. Taught myself to code, survived an AWS database wipe at 3am, now building SimpleMark solo and bootstrapped. Tel Aviv, by way of Vienna and Omsk.
