In 2009, Shenderovich founded Kite Ventures, a venture investment company that led investments in Darberry (acquired by Groupon), Fyber (FRA:FBEN), Delivery Hero (FRA:DHER), Plated (acquired by Albertsons), Tradeshift, and others.

In 2015 he co-founded and became executive chairman of Knotel, a flexible real estate service, now owned by Newmark Group.

Shenderovich is currently the co-founder and CEO of Roebling (formerly Synonym), a New York-based company building AI-assisted process engineering and techno-economic modeling infrastructure for the bioeconomy and broader process industries. Roebling is backed by Andreessen Horowitz.

Shenderovich writes and publishes poetry in Russian. He has been published by many Russian journals and included in ‘’Ulysses Released: Contemporary Russian Poets Abroad (In Russian:2004)’’ edited by Dmitry Kuzmin.
