PhD in Engineering
Candidate of Technical Sciences — a research background in structural analysis and applied mechanics.
10+ years in engineering
A decade as a structural / strength-analysis engineer, solving hard, high-stakes technical problems.
University lecturer
Years spent teaching engineering at university level — explaining complex systems clearly is second nature.
Full-stack developer

Alexey Smerdov — founder of Smerdoff

I spent more than ten years as a structural / strength-analysis engineer and taught engineering at university, earning a PhD (Candidate of Technical Sciences) along the way. That work is unforgiving: a missed assumption or an unchecked edge case has real consequences, so you learn to reason carefully before you commit.

For the last few years I've applied that same discipline to software. Smerdoff is a small, hands-on web studio — I'm directly involved in scoping, architecture and delivery of every project, from web and mobile apps to AI integrations and MVPs.

The goal is simple: build products that actually work, explain every decision in plain language, and publish real prices and timelines instead of hiding them behind a «contact us» wall.

What this means for your project

Engineering rigor, not guesswork

A background in strength analysis means requirements, edge cases and trade-offs get thought through before code is written — the same discipline that keeps physical structures standing.

You talk to the person who builds it

This is a small studio, not an agency layer. The founder is directly involved in scoping, architecture and delivery — no telephone game between you and the code.

Clarity over jargon

Teaching habits carry over: you get plain explanations of what is being built, why, what it costs and how long it takes — published on every service page.

Let's build something

Tell me about your task — you'll get a straight answer on approach, price and timeline.
