5 Years at CluneTech - Interview with Yoanna Lyubenova

At CluneTech, we have an extensive Milestone Recognition Program that rewards employees that choose to build a long and successful career with us. As part of this programme, we love celebrating and sharing the stories of those reaching major milestones with the company.

This month we caught up with Sprintax's US Tax and Payroll Expert, Yoanna Lyubenova who has been on our team for the last 5 years.

Favourite thing about working in CluneTech

My favorite thing about the company is the team I work with, who supports me, and the freedom we are given to offer ideas and be innovative in what we do.

What has been your biggest achievement or highlight since joining CluneTech?

My biggest achievement is the fact that I started working in the company while I was still a student and managed to continuously learn, improve and take on new responsibilities in my role. As a highlight, I would probably say the fact that I started my journey on becoming an IRS enrolled agent.

What is the biggest change that you have witnessed in your time here?

The biggest change so far has been the growth of our team. When I came, there were only 5 of us, now we’ve expanded, and continue to grow. Over time, we’ve been granted more responsibilities which allow us to learn new stuff and give us an opportunity for carrier development.

What is the greatest challenge that you have faced in your time here and how did you overcome it?

Talking in front of an audience – all introverts will understand. I was super concerned and overwhelmed by the fact that I will be onboarding new clients and making calls with already existing partners. I just decided I’ll continue challenging myself until I felt comfortable doing it. Over time, it indeed started becoming easier and easier to do it daily.

What has been your favourite project to work on?

Our partnership with FIFA on World Cup 2026.

Do you have any advice for someone who is just starting their career in CluneTech?

My advice is – try socializing with as many people as possible. Everyone here has unique knowledge and skills, so you can learn something useful from everyone. Being reliable - consistently meeting commitments builds trust faster than occasional standout achievements. Focus on learning and don’t be afraid to ask questions.
