Product Lead building and scaling EdTech, marketplaces, and B2B SaaS products—plus LLM-powered discovery and workflow automation.
Russian FederationWhat I'm looking for
I’ve led product lifecycles from hypothesis to MVP launch and post-launch iteration at Younesis (mobile networking for online education) and OZON.ru (B2B operational products and post-purchase experience for a major Eastern Europe marketplace). I’ve redesigned onboarding and support workflows, built operational delivery processes, and scaled products through automation and process change.
More recently, I’ve been integrating LLMs and AI agents into product discovery, market intelligence, workflow automation, and decision-support—so teams can move faster and make better product calls. I also run cross-functional product execution with teams spanning Product, Engineering, Operations, Customer Success, Marketing, and Sales.
