For more than ten years, I was a Project and Product Manager for an HVAC engineering company. In my role as a PM, I was responsible for technology selection, project planning, and team management. In the last five years, I have been involved in the development of products for the company.

I am currently considering a move into the IT industry. I believe that I have the skills, qualities, and experience that will allow me to enter the position of Product Manager and start bringing value to the company in the shortest terms.

At my previous place of work, I developed 3 (three) full-fledged, successful products from scratch. I owned the overall product development lifecycle - conducting competitor analyses and customer surveys, developing user stories, determining success indicators, defining a roadmap, and finally, contributing to delivering the product to the market.

I consider my strengths to be the ability to reveal and understand the essence of business needs and "customer pain". Also, I believe I can find a common language with different people.
