Appointment reflects SOFTSWISS’ focus on long-term tech stability, scalability and disciplined engineering execution as the company advances its next phase of growth.

SOFTSWISS, a global technology provider of software solutions for the iGaming industry, has appointed Sergey Kastukevich as chief technology officer (CTO) in line with its 2026 technology and product strategy.

Kastukevich has served as Deputy Chief Technology Officer at SOFTSWISS for over five years, playing a central role in shaping the company’s technology foundations. Under his leadership, SOFTSWISS has developed highly reliable, scalable solutions for complex, high-load, and highly regulated environments.

As CTO, Kastukevich will be responsible for defining and executing SOFTSWISS’ technology roadmap, overseeing software architecture, infrastructure strategy, security and reliability standards, and engineering productivity across teams. A key priority of his role will be ensuring technical excellence in how SOFTSWISS builds and scales its products.

SOFTSWISS places strong emphasis on engineering culture and continuous knowledge exchange. In 2025, under Kastukevich’s technical leadership, the company hosted several internal and external technology initiatives, including an internal technology conference that brought together more than 100 engineers and developers working on SOFTSWISS products, as well as industry-facing events designed to foster collaboration and innovation within the wider tech community. 

Ivan Montik, founder of SOFTSWISS, commented: “Sergey has consistently demonstrated the kind of leadership that is critical for a technology-driven business – strong engineering judgement, long-term thinking and the ability to build systems that perform under pressure. His promotion to CTO aligns with our strategy for 2026, where platform stability, scalability and technological discipline are key pillars of sustainable growth.”

Sergey Kastukevich, chief technology officer at SOFTSWISS, added: “In this role, my focus will remain on strengthening the technical foundations that enable rapid, secure, and high-quality delivery while also driving innovation across everything we do. At SOFTSWISS, technology leadership means not only ensuring reliability and scalability, but also shaping a culture where engineers can create forward-looking solutions and continuously evolve our products. I am committed to further strengthening SOFTSWISS as a trusted technology company that sets new standards for the iGaming industry.”

As part of its new  technology and product strategy, SOFTSWISS recently announced the creation of a Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer role to formalise AI as an integral part of business infrastructure. Together, these leadership appointments underline the company’s commitment to strengthening both software engineering and enterprise AI capabilities as part of its long-term strategy.
