At EPAM Systems, I manage requirements, product backlogs, sprint goals, acceptance criteria, and stakeholder alignment across the lifecycle from design through production release. I also contribute to OKR planning and ensure delivery teams have clear, testable work ready for sprint planning.

Previously, I drove Sho-Soft’s roadmap, feature delivery, UI/UX strategy, analytics-led retention improvements, and go-to-market collaboration. Across ISTC LABZ and SoftConstruct, I built product strategies, ran Scrum ceremonies, led teams, conducted market and user research, and improved workflows through customer feedback.
