Dr. Vladislav Apostolyuk new Volz Servos CTO

Dr. Vladislav Apostolyuk is our new Chief Technology Officer (CTO). The Ukrainian-born aerospace engineer joined us as Technical Director in 2025 and now succeeds former CTO Mark Juhrig, who passed away in autumn 2025 following a long illness.

“Stepping into this role is both an honour and a responsibility I take very seriously”, Vladislav Apostolyuk wrote on LinkedIn announcing his new position. “My focus will be on strengthening our technical roadmap, advancing core technologies, and ensuring that Volz Servos products not only meet today’s aerospace requirements but set new benchmarks for performance, robustness, and innovation. Together with the talented engineering and production teams, I’m committed to pushing our flight control and actuation technologies to – and beyond – the current state of the art.”

“From the very first conversation, Dr. Apostolyuk captivated us with his outstanding combination of experience, expertise and energy. And what’s more: He not only knows the requirements of our customers from theory, he actually created them – playing a leading role in eVTOL working groups with EUROCAE in the development of certification standards”, says Volz CEO Phillipp Volz. “We are delighted having him in our team! in the past months he has proven to be one of a kind professional but also a well respected team member!”

Dr. Vladislav Apostolyuk has a family background in aviation with his father being an aerospace scientist. “I have never been not into aviation”, he remembers his childhood and youth in Kyiv. Following an extensive and successful academic career in Ukraine and Singapore, he decided to apply his expertise in uncrewed and autonomous flight to accelerate real projects. In 2018, he joined Lilium as a Senior Engineer for Autonomous Flight, later becoming the technical lead for Avionics. As Technical Director and now CTO at Volz Servos, his in-depth knowledge of certification is crucial for developing components that will make aviation projects of numerous Volz customers a reality.
