Alexander Fiodorov-Miller

Hi, I'm Alex. I build full-stack software where beautiful design meets thoughtful engineering. I started wireframing software at age four (yes, really), and that early obsession turned into a lifelong pursuit of creating tools people actually enjoy using.

At 17, I co-founded a CS education startup that reached over a million students across Latin America. It taught me how to move fast, build inclusive tech, and ship meaningful software with real-world impact.

Today, I'm engineering GPS-integrated, 360° video platforms at Optic Systems, helping property managers and municipalities visualize and manage sites remotely. I’m focused on crafting digital experiences that are elegant, accessible, and genuinely useful.
