About

Engineer by trade, Founder by practice.

I spent 10+ years as a Software Engineer at top-tier companies (Google, LinkedIn) before leaving the "Big Tech" safety net to build my own company.

For the last 5 years, I’ve been the Founder/CEO of MR NET (MotionRay), dealing with the messy reality of complex hardware, cellular bonding, and mission-critical infrastructure.

I’m still building, but I’ve learned a lot about the transition from "Code" to "Company."

I mentor a small group of engineers and founders on:

Reality Checks: Validating your startup idea or architecture before you burn months of time.

The Transition: Moving from Senior Engineer to Staff, CTO, or Founder.

The Hard Stuff: Managing technical debt while trying to survive, fundraising for "hard tech," and hiring your first real team.

No fluff, just practical insights from someone who is currently in the trenches.

What's included in the trial?

Every trial is a little different–here's what Anton says about their trial:

We'll meet for a quick call (usually under 30 minutes) where we:
- Break the ice and introduce ourselves
- Discuss your goals and how I can support you
- Coordinate logistics like time zones, meeting frequency, and communication methods
