Revolut co-founder Vlad Yatsenko to step down in July

Investing.com -- Revolut Ltd.'s chief technology officer Vlad Yatsenko will leave his position at the digital bank in July, the company said in a statement.

Donato Lucia, who currently serves as Revolut's head of technology, will take over the position. The role will be renamed vice president of technology. Yatsenko will move to a non-executive director position on Revolut's board.

Yatsenko joined Revolut as its first employee one year before Chief Executive Officer Nik Storonsky launched the company. He has held the title of co-founder since joining.

"I feel content with this decision, as Revolut has grown from a young, ambitious startup into a mature, highly impactful global company," Yatsenko said in the statement.

Storonsky explained his decision to make Yatsenko a co-founder during an interview with David Rubenstein earlier this year. "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.

Lucia joined Revolut in 2018 as a senior software engineer, according to his LinkedIn profile. He was appointed to his current role in April 2025. The company said Lucia has been building core infrastructure for Revolut.
