Can you build a successful career in IT without being a developer? What skills truly matter? How do you earn the trust of technical teams? And what career paths are available for non-technical professionals?

These are some of the questions that Ruslana Zhyliuk, Senior Project Manager at Sigma Software, will explore during the panel discussion: "How to grow into a management role in IT when you're not a developer" at Women Career Day.

Together with Viktoriia Bariak, Lead Product UI/UX Designer at Sharkscode, and Anastasiia Petrachkova, CEO of Testora by Gismart, Ruslana will discuss how non-technical specialists can grow into leadership positions, earn the trust of technical teams, develop the right skills, and navigate career opportunities in the IT industry.

We’re happy to share a piece of news we’re truly proud of 💛

Our projects Months of Cultures (Sigma Software) and Teachers’ Smart Up (Sigma Software University Global) have received the special Jury’s Choice recognition at the People First Award 2026.

Take the opportunity to revisit the project videos:
⭐ Months of Cultures — in Employee Engagement & Culture - https://youtu.be/aI3zSzQm8N4?si=Zm67BNgR7fr09OdJ
⭐ Teachers’ Smart Up: 9,000 educators shaping the future of education — in Corporate Social Responsibility - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvIOQyTWH64&t=1s

This recognition means a lot to us — because both projects are about people.

About openness to different cultures, support, growth, and opportunities that shape experiences both within the company and beyond.

It’s especially meaningful to see these initiatives recognised by experts — it shows that their impact is seen and valued.

💛 Our thanks to the People First Award for this recognition
💛 Thank you to everyone who supported us — watched, voted, shared, and simply stood with us along the way
