Senior Product Manager Technical with 10 years of experience in product development, statistical and financial analysis, and 4 years of hands-on programming experience in data mining, processing, analysis, and visualization (Python, Web API, SQL, Django, REST API, React.js).
I was born and educated in Russia and began my career as an investment analyst for British hedge funds, where I spent six years while living in Lithuania, EU. In 2021, I immigrated to the U.S. and joined Amazon as a Senior Financial Analyst. I transitioned internally to a Product Manager role in 2023 and received a technical promotion in 2025.
Since 2021, I’ve been volunteering as a mentor with Upwardly Global, helping immigrants rebuild their professional careers in the U.S.—a journey I went through myself. I also run two YouTube channels (in Russian and English), where I share content on career development, career transitions, and immigration.
