What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build scalable, AI-enabled learning products where I can connect business needs, product discovery, learning design, analytics, and cross-functional delivery to create measurable workforce and leadership outcomes.

At X5 Group, I lead leadership and high-potential learning products across the business, redesigning manager development around applied practice, live challenges, project work, and AI-enabled learning journeys. I also built a hybrid leadership product for high-potential leaders and champion AI adoption through automated workflows and an AI Marathon.

Across X5 Import, Pyaterochka, and MIXPIX, I've delivered digital onboarding, leadership academies, learning analytics, and scalable learning experiences for distributed workforces of 60,000+ employees. My work has reduced turnover by 30%, shortened time to productivity to four shifts, placed 100+ early-career participants into roles, and reduced L&D spend by RUB 5 million.
