IT in Ukraine

Not just a salary: how IT companies kept teams warm in the winter of 2025-2026. Wintering in Madrid, $1000 for relocation and payment for UPS for each

January 2026 was one of the most difficult for civilians during a full-scale war: massive attacks, long blackouts, lack of heat in parts of the cities. For IT companies, it was again a test of resilience — not only of business processes, but also of real care for people. On the last day of this extremely difficult winter, we tell you how Ukrainian companies supported their teams — from generators and sleeping rooms to hotel compensation and relocation programs. And we really want to believe that the coming months will be a little easier for all of us.

Hello! This is a new episode of the podcast «Sho po Shi». With you, as always, Alexey Minakov, an apologist for artificial intelligence, and Stas Yurasov, CEO of dev.ua. And today we have a very eventful episode.

"We thought it would never happen to the same place twice." A developer from Odesa told how he lost his home after two attacks by "shaheeds"

In the world of programming, the term “stress tolerance” is often just a cliché on a resume. However, for Oleksandr Viter, Senior Python Developer, this concept has acquired a completely new, physical meaning. Twice in two weeks, Russian “shaheeds” hit Oleksandr’s apartment in Odessa and almost completely destroyed his home. We talked to the IT guy about how to act in such a situation, who to contact and who came to the rescue first.

“I’d heard about ‘meat storms,’ but I didn’t really believe it until I saw them with my own eyes.” The honest story of an AIT veteran who, despite a serious injury, managed to get a job in IT

Semen Nenashev is 27 years old. Talking about himself, he mentions several statuses: father, veteran of the Russian-Ukrainian war, a person with a disability due to a combat injury, and a QA engineer. His biography includes an IT career, service in a strike UAV unit, a serious injury, and a return to civilian life with a disability. He does not romanticize the war and does not embellish his path. The veteran from Aiti shared with dev.ua his story not about «successful success,» but about a choice that haunts him.

War sets priorities very quickly. It clearly shows the difference between technology as an idea and technology as a real capability.
