What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities in the Russian market where I can apply my 4+ years of international IT recruiting experience, use AI tools daily to source faster, and grow professionally while owning end-to-end hiring coordination.

I’m an international IT recruiter with 4+ years of experience sourcing technical talent for US and European companies. I’ve worked across a wide range of IT roles—from junior engineers to managers—and I understand Western hiring markets.

In my current role, I source IT specialists across international markets (USA, Europe, South America) for companies including Klarna, Torc, Mercuryo, Upstack, Toptal, and others. My specialization covers Backend/Frontend/Full Stack Developers, Data/ML/AI Engineers, DevOps, SRE, Cloud Engineers, QA, UX/UI, SAP, Security (PAM), Business Analysts, Project Managers, and more.

I own end-to-end candidate communication: initial outreach, screening, status updates across hiring stages, and offer coordination. I also manage the pipeline—interview scheduling, stage-by-stage coordination, and resolving blockers—while using AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, DeepSeek) to source faster and craft personalized outreach messages.
