Revolut is reshuffling its technology leadership as Co-Founder Vlad Yatsenko prepares to leave the CTO post for a board role.
Bloomberg reported that Yatsenko will step down in July ending a long run in the top technology role at the UK fintech.
Donato Lucia, Revolut’s Head of Technology, will assume the renamed role of Vice President of Technology.
Yatsenko joined before Revolut formally launched and is described as the company’s first employee.
CEO Nik Storonsky later gave him the co-founder title, saying earlier this year that the title helped Yatsenko recruit engineers. Yatsenko said he felt settled about the decision.
Lucia has been with Revolut since 2018, when he started as a Senior Software Engineer, according to his LinkedIn profile.
He was appointed Head of Technology in April 2025 and has worked on systems that support Revolut’s main banking infrastructure.
The transition comes as Revolut continues to scale its financial services business across global markets.
