About

I am a Senior Project Manager with strong technical background in Software Development, Fintech and Retail Banking services, managing, and leading complex projects. I have a wide experience with products management, solutions design, and solution management.

My passion is building effective systems to solve critical business challenges that have a beneficial impact on a huge number of people in their daily activities. That's why I love spearheading and managing Hi-tech projects, especially in the Fintech industry, therefore I became a Project Manager and Technical Product Manager.
My biggest prides in the professional field are:
• Initiating and designing a key strategic project for building 2nd level in-house processing center for Rosbank, which had a 250% ROI for 5 years;
• Launching of tokenization technology (GooglePay, ApplePay, SamsungPay), which was incredibly desired by the Bank's clients and helped bank keeping a leading position in retail banking industry on the Russian market;
• Revitalizing software product for ATMs cash management and successful launch on the Russian and International markets.
