Today, I work as a Product Manager for an educational project in the e-commerce field, and currently, I want to switch to work in IT.
As a product manager of an educational project, I have the following experience:
- project development from idea to long-term growth and development - as a result, the product from 0 became the leader in the Ukrainian market and successfully worked for seven years
- detailed research of the market and competitors (analysis and comparison of products, services, channels of attracting traffic and sales) to add value to the product that users are willing to pay,
- definition of target audience and User Personas based on a detailed study of customers and followers in social networks,
- development of the product line (trial products, main products and products for repeat sales), that users want and need,
- analyzing customer feedback and product usage rates and identifying areas for improvement - resulting in an 18% increase in product usage (number of students who completed the course).
- developed a financial model
- detailed calculation of economy units and one-year sales plan.

I also independently created sites/landings for all products (5+ platforms) and developed and implemented product launch plans and marketing campaigns.

EXPERIENCE IN IT
While taking the IT Product Management course, I developed the concept of a new product (Saas + App) from 0, namely:
- designed VPC,
- selected Target audience and developed User Personas,
- carried out marketing research of the market and competitors,
- developed product functionality hypotheses and conducted CustDev interviews for their validation,
- made CAC and CLTV calculations,
- developed a description of the MVP and a road map of product creation,
- prepared and pitched a presentation of the product.

During the course, the quality of my work was highly appreciated by my mentor, so at the end of the course, I received a diploma with honors.

Now I am actively acquiring new, more specific knowledge in the field of product management and taking courses:
- Product Analytics Certification Course by Mind the Product & Pendo,
- Product-led Certification Course by Mind the Product & Pendo.

I was also selected to participate in the acceleration program "Women Go Tech" - a European mentoring program for women beginners in IT, where professionals with extensive experience act as mentors for beginners. So I have my mentor who supports me and someone to consult with if necessary.
I want to work remotely on the next project (since I am currently in Poland). Ideally, work on a product in the field of e-commerce or EdTech, because, in these domains, I have great expertise and understanding of the market; I will be able to understand quickly and bring benefits.

I will also consider offers of part-time employment or a paid internship lasting up to six months to gain experience working with IT products.

I am ready to learn new things and accept new challenges.
