Duygu Koçer
@duygukoer
I build AI-native products and operating systems that connect strategy, teams, workflows, and execution.
What I'm looking for
I've built and scaled products across Yandex, Getir, Volt Lines, QDelivery, and Efsora Labs, spanning maps, mobility, logistics, AI, platforms, and enterprise technology. At Efsora Labs, I joined as the first product hire, helped scale the organization from 3 to 45 people, led AI-native engagements for five B2B enterprise customers, and architected roughly 30 company processes.
I've led routing, mapping, courier, delivery, and operational systems that improved fulfillment by 30%, reduced map service costs by 44%, cut fuel costs by 33%, and grew Yandex Navi daily active users by 47%. I'm focused on AI-native products and the systems behind them: how teams, workflows, decisions, and technology work together.
