What I'm looking for

I am looking for senior BD or partnerships roles at growth-stage AI/infra companies where I can lead technical GTM, build cross-border partner ecosystems, and drive early commercial traction.

I am a Technical Business Development and Partnerships specialist with an engineering background and hands-on experience in AI evaluation, prompt engineering, and project delivery. I have led cross-functional engineering and research teams, negotiated strategic partnerships, and helped secure seed investment while driving early commercial traction for complex technical products.

My work spans ecosystem development, GTM execution and automation — from evaluating 500+ LLM outputs weekly to building distributed inference networks and expanding developer and partner ecosystems across EU, APAC and CIS. I combine technical fluency, operational rigor and strong communication to shorten negotiation cycles, scale contributor networks, and launch effective go-to-market initiatives.
