04 — Words
He's a genuinely strong technical SEO specialist — the kind of person who digs deep into algorithms, uncovers non-obvious issues, and builds his own solutions when needed.
One of the strongest specialists I've worked with. Max always looks beyond just fixing the tech — he understands the bigger strategy and offers solutions that move the needle.
As my manager, he always made communication easy and clear, and trusted my skills as a designer. A thoughtful leader who creates a comfortable, motivating environment.
Max took on complex areas of work, supported and inspired the team, and mentored on hard tasks. I repeatedly saw him build technical solutions for specific project needs.
