Position: Product Owner (Embedded, ML/AI, Hardware)
Category: Product Manager
English level: fluent
Years of experience: 4

Throughout whole my engineering career I manage myself and help the team to focus on end goals to improve output and performance.
My responsibilities include:
- Defining the scope for development and research when new feature is requested (e.g. improvement in the product is required or new functionality is requested by business).
- Working with developers team on solidifying the requirements and ensuring that the scope is fully understood and doable, the solution proposed is reasonably scalable and timeline is adequate.
- Working with project management team to ensure that the tasks are prioritized, scheduled and formalized correctly, to ensure that the tasks structure in Jira is logical and progress monitoring is easy for all parties, to verify or create the testing scenarios for QAs.
- Working with technicians or tech docs team to create full internal documentation for the technicians, service and QA teams; working with support team and developers on incidents analysis and processing.
- Communicating with senior management team (VP of Engineering, Head of Development, Head of Production) to secure resources and to work on product roadmaps and schedules.
My current role is Engineering Manager / Lead R&D Engineer / and Team Lead for company developing software and hardware for high-end 3d printers. Strong engineering background and people skills, sufficient knowledge of software and electronics to lead and communicate with developers. Business and results oriented.

I'm leading a team as a product manager (features manager) and promoting software and hardware cross-team cooperation for development of innovative 3d printing solutions. I answer questions "how to include new hardware to the existing system & should we?", "how to adjust the existing algorithms to the new process requirements & will it work?", "what should be done for the feature to work / product to succeed?". I'm facilitating software development to ensure correct hardware usage and sustainability of the designed products. I'm working with compliance requirements. I'm guiding the support cases to resolution based on analysis of hardware & software processes.

I have experience of managing IT projects related to machine learning and computer vision.
I have experience in data science (data analysis: Matlab, Mathcad, Excel) as my researcher background, 3d modeling and mathematical models (fluid dynamics, thermal dynamics, mechanical stress: Solidworks, ANSYS).
I have minor programming experience (C++, C, Python, Delphi)  for personal use and embedded applications. I confidently use Git and command line. I often and gladly read code in repositories (GitLab, Git Extensions) when that's required for being on the same page with developers or getting the documentation right.

Professional goals: to expedite development of innovative projects, bringing together product and software teams to maximize the public value of the project and facilitating the teamwork and cooperation to accelerate product rollout to the market and ensure products' sustainability.
- I have a researcher mindset and I will tend to experiment and optimize the process (be it a technical task or a management metric). Having said that, I'm a great listener, and my approach is unification and not changing things if that creates unmanageable risks.
- I listen and learn before I act, so I will rely on an existing senior engineers and management leads and their expertise before making decisions.
- I have experience of letting my team members go and in my team I most value dedication to work and being able to show results. But I can only motivate people by giving them interesting, impactful and challenging tasks and valuing their performance, I can't be a scrum master that motivates the team with quests, jokes and fake excitement.
