Meet our founder and learn about our mission
Elena Raikhman is a seasoned tech professional who's worked at companies like Philips, GE, Amazon, Microsoft, and Apple. After years of building software and leading complex engineering programs, she wanted to do something more personal—something that made a difference.
It all began with helping a few students understand what it really means to work in tech. That experience sparked a bigger idea: to create a company that not only delivers great results for clients, but also mentors young talent and brings people together through meaningful work. Elena leads Explena with a focus on teamwork, learning, and making things just a little better—project by project.
Inspired by this vision, Explena was created to help bring ideas to life through technology, creativity, and collaboration.

Real feedback from real experiences
"I thought it was an amazing learning experience and provided me with a lot of real-world skills. The quality and quantity of the work we did seems better than what you would do at a big company internship where you'd work on one small feature out of the company's hundreds of features. Whereas here you have a much greater impact and you know that everything you work on will be used and is necessary for the final product to function properly."
"It was a great learning experience, not only with the tools and Azure fundamentals but to see how a project works and the lifecycle of it. Not to mention the collaboration and team work."
