I lead optimization and analytics delivery for complex operations across energy, logistics, and manufacturing.
GeorgiaWhat I'm looking for
I've led mathematical-optimization delivery at RAMAX Group, building systems for Lukoil, Rosneft Aero, and a major metallurgical holding. My work spans scoping, solution design, requirements, and end-to-end delivery in Agile and Waterfall.
For Lukoil, I delivered a fuel-distribution optimization POC that reduced the required tanker fleet by 2%, saving approximately RUB 80M annually. I also delivered a real-time aircraft-refueling optimization system handling 250+ aircraft daily and a rolled-steel production planning system that freed 8–12 hours of line capacity monthly.
Previously, I led business analysis and optimization initiatives at Rosneft and Navicon, and worked on ML-based anomaly detection and predictive payout models at Yandex. At PwC, I led transport and logistics workstreams including market assessment and TMS process transformation.
I bring business process analysis, requirements engineering, mathematical optimization, forecasting, and financial feasibility together to turn complex operational problems into working systems. I'm open to Project Manager and Lead Analyst roles in Tbilisi, on-site or hybrid.
