About

Andrei Potekhin is a product designer and builder working at the intersection of design, AI-native building, and product development. By day, he designs learning management systems for enterprise organizations at Valamis. By night, he builds his own products and tools, experimenting with everything from multi-agent AI systems to open-weight models.

He also runs ShadowStack, Joensuu's community for AI-native builders, where he's led over a dozen hands-on sessions teaching people how to build apps with AI. Andrei is especially interested in helping students, researchers, and aspiring founders translate their passion and expertise into products and businesses.

Fun fact: Andrei's name is an anagram of AI NERD.
