Bearskin Group supports technology businesses through key moments of growth, transition, and restructuring. We work with investors, founders, and operators to strengthen engineering execution and unlock value across the product lifecycle.
The firm was founded by Elijah Podavalkin, who has bought, built, and exited technology businesses. His experience spans technical due diligence, turnaround execution, and post-acquisition integration — all with one focus: making engineering a lever, not a bottleneck
We help investors and operators assess, structure, and execute technology delivery in environments where speed, clarity, and technical depth are required
Software and product-heavy businesses often carry technical debt, delivery inconsistency, or incomplete org structures. These gaps become material in a transaction, integration, or growth round
We provide senior engineering leadership and hands-on teams to:
- De-risk delivery before or after the deal
- Build missing execution capacity
- Align tech structure with commercial intent
Our team brings experience across a range of verticals — from SaaS and cybersecurity to FinTech, logistics platforms, and regulated markets. We understand the nuances of each category and adapt our execution model to fit technical maturity, roadmap complexity, and capital structure
