Head of Delivery / Engineering Operations Lead / Technical PM with hands-on AI expertise
Experience
14+ years in IT, 8+ leading distributed teams.
Ran an engineering organization of 20+ specialists - PM, backend, frontend, QA, DevOps and analytics; owned processes, releases, infrastructure, payroll, hiring and contractors.
Built the full discovery → refinement → delivery → QA → release cycle, keeping product, engineering and business in sync.
10 years on mission-critical infrastructure for top-10 Russian banks and major federal retailers; led a team of nine engineers, owning SLA, incidents, RCA and SOPs.
Domains: FinTech, classifieds platforms, FoodTech, Smart TV and GameDev.
Recent key results
Moved delivery for a core area of an international classifieds platform off Excel into a managed Jira contour: ~100 high-level initiatives structured into 1,200+ tasks with owners, priorities and acceptance criteria. Connected delivery metrics to OKR/KPI, set up C-level dashboards, and cut average task age by 60%.
Scaled the engineering organization ×2, rolled out YouTrack for 50+ users, built the QA function from scratch, established a regular release cycle and set up 24/7 DevOps on-call.
Delivered up to five client products in parallel - different teams, tech stacks, budgets and deadlines - from presale and estimation to release and support.
AI in practice
I design and implement AI-assisted delivery processes: meeting transcript → PRD and user-story drafts → Jira/Confluence → human review → decomposition and estimation. I automate sprint reporting, blocker tracking, documentation and management summaries, and build my own services and Telegram bots on a VPS.
Tools & practices
Jira, YouTrack, Confluence, GitLab; Claude, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Gemini, n8n, MCP; SDLC, DoR/DoD, RACI, SLA, OKR/KPI, flow metrics, Release and Incident Management.
Format
Full-time, remote (time zones 0…+8). Open to relocation for a strong mutual match. English - B2.
