Evgenii Blium
@evgeniiblium
I build high-growth e-commerce, payments, and mobile products that improve conversion and revenue.
What I'm looking for
At Farmy, Switzerland’s top-3 online grocery marketplace, I lead customer-facing web and mobile products. I’ve improved app conversion by 21%, revenue per user by 13%, cart-to-purchase conversion by 14%, and reduced web CAC by 35%.
Previously at TSUM Moscow, I owned half of a €1.4B annual-GMV e-commerce ecosystem serving 2.7M monthly active users. I led checkout, cart, profile, and favourites development across web and mobile, contributing to €20M in annual revenue growth through conversion optimization and payment improvements.
I’ve built payment platforms used across three legal entities, launched travel products for hundreds of thousands of users, and led offline-to-online transformations for concierge and travel services. My work spans acquisition funnels, UX, mobile apps, internal platforms, CRM, loyalty, and payment orchestration.
I build product and development teams, introduce operating frameworks such as OKRs and quarterly planning, and use AI to speed up research, prototyping, automation, and delivery. I start with one question: how does this create value users want and drive business results?
