About
I’m Sasha Kucharczyk, an operator and product leader with 10+ years building and scaling technology businesses. Most recently I co-founded and led Preteckt, an enterprise AI company serving transit agencies and fleets across North America, acquired in 2025. I focus on building systems, teams, and products that deliver measurable impact. Based in Toronto, I work at the intersection of AI, strategy, and operations.
