What I'm looking for

I seek a full-time executive technical leadership role in energy or mining, focusing on turn-key projects, CAPEX/OPEX optimization, innovation, and cross-functional team leadership, with opportunities for relocation and operational responsibility.

I am an executive-level professional with over 18 years of managerial experience in the energy sector, distributed power generation, and industrial cryptocurrency mining. I lead turnkey projects from due diligence and design to procurement, installation, and commissioning, with repeated CAPEX and OPEX optimizations.

My hands-on experience includes gas engine power generation (Jenbacher, Caterpillar, MTU), utilization of associated petroleum gas and industrial gas, energy audits (50+ facilities), and deployment of data centers totaling 79 MW across Russia and neighboring countries. I deliver measurable results: CAPEX reductions, tariff optimizations, demand response, and high-efficiency hybrid systems.

I operate at the intersection of technical, legal, and financial domains, negotiating with C-level stakeholders and coordinating cross-functional teams. I prioritize safety, regulatory compliance, and practical innovation — implementing IoT predictive analytics, LOTO procedures, and hybrid cooling and heating solutions to maximize efficiency and reduce costs.
