@kristinakrykunenko
I coordinate complex delivery, budgets, and distributed operations across international teams.
What I'm looking for
I've coordinated delivery across seven scrum teams and 100+ concurrent projects at YODEZEEN, connecting five offices across a nine-hour time-zone spread. I kept timelines, budgets, risks, and stakeholder updates moving before issues reached client-facing deadlines.
Across consulting, hospitality, technology, and construction work, I've built operational infrastructure, relaunched a product line that increased monthly sales by 150%, and cut operational losses by 89%. I bring hands-on experience with cross-functional delivery, cost control, people operations, and end-to-end project coordination.
