He has had the title of co-founder since he joined.“I made him a co-founder as well, because it was easier for him to recruit engineers if he had the title co-founder,” Storonsky said of Yatsenko in an interview with David Rubenstein earlier this year.Lucia has been building core infrastructure for Revolut, according to the statement.
