About RiseGravity

A product engineering company, built by product people.

RiseGravity is a product engineering company. We are a small, hands-on engineering team that designs, builds and operates software products for startups and growing companies. We work as one team that can own a product end to end — architecture, web, mobile, backend, infrastructure and the ongoing development that follows launch.

We are remote-first: the engineering team is based in North Macedonia and the company is registered in the United States.

Our mission

Great ideas die in the gap between concept and shipped product. We exist to close that gap. Our mission is to give founders and product teams the engineering capacity to turn a vision into software people rely on — without the overhead of building a large team from scratch.

We named ourselves RiseGravity because good products defy gravity: they make hard things feel effortless and pull a business upward. That is the bar we hold ourselves to on every engagement.

We also operate software products of our own. It keeps us honest about what happens after launch — billing, support, monitoring, app-store reviews and the unglamorous work of keeping a system healthy.

What we do

We build and scale software products end to end. Three ways to work with us:

What we value

The principles that shape how we work and the decisions we make every day.

Outcomes over output

We measure success by the business results we move — activation, revenue, retention — not the number of tickets closed.

Velocity with quality

Short feedback loops and frequent deploys, backed by clean architecture so speed never becomes tomorrow’s technical debt.

Secure & reliable

Sensible defaults for auth, data protection and observability. We build software you can trust in production.

Thoughtful craft

Calm, accessible interfaces and restrained motion. Details matter, because they are what users actually feel.

Transparency

Clear scope, honest timelines and progress you can see weekly. No surprises, no black boxes.

Partner mindset

We co-create with you and stay invested after launch — iterating with real data and user feedback.

The engineering team

Three engineers. Everyone you meet on a call is someone who will build your product.

Risto Radanliev
Founder & Principal Engineer

Leads architecture and engineering across RiseGravity projects, from product requirements and system design through full-stack implementation, infrastructure and production operations. Also leads RiseGravity's own products, including ProTerminal, Benny, ShopWiz and Kalora.

Sani Radanlieva
Full-Stack Engineer

Builds across the stack — React and React Native front ends, Node.js APIs and MongoDB data models — with a focus on clean, maintainable features that ship.

Momchilo Iliev
Full-Stack Engineer

Works across frontend, backend and integrations: React interfaces, Express services, payments and third-party APIs, and the testing that keeps releases calm.

How we work

The same delivery system on every engagement, whether it is a six-week build or a multi-year product. It is how a small team ships like a much larger one.

01
Discovery

Business goals, users, constraints, integrations and what success looks like.

02
Architecture & scope

The product translated into technical architecture, a feature breakdown, assumptions and explicit exclusions.

03
Milestone plan

Concrete deliverables with dates, not a bucket of hours.

04
Build, with weekly demos

Git, pull requests, issue tracking, staging environments and documented decisions. You see working software every week.

05
QA & release

Acceptance criteria, staging sign-off, production deployment and app-store submissions where relevant.

06
Handover & ongoing engineering

Repositories, credentials, infrastructure and documentation clearly owned by you — then maintenance, monitoring and the next roadmap items if you want us to stay.
