Position: Senior Product Designer
Category: Design
English level: upper
Years of experience: 7


For the last two years, I've worked as a Head of Design at a startup. We've reached 200M downloads worldwide and got a 5M from best Silicon ventures in the seed round. 
I've been keeping design together to ensure our long-term goal moves in the right direction. I used to create designs independently, guiding and supervising designers in their solutions and all product team with their hypotheses. Also, I've made assumptions, one of them shaped by one new product with good traction in a 3-month perspective.

For a year before this experience, I was responsible for all video features inside Yandex Search. I've got all my goals completed by money and product metrics, and I was making design approaches for other Yandex products in my free time.

Meanwhile, I was making my products and startups, so I knew how to take responsibility, build teams, get shit done, and fail. I'm co-owner of a sticker-print service and was a founder of a startup around.

Right now, I'm looking for a lead or senior position in a startup in the late stage or a product with strong PMF to bring more value as a designer. I'd like to rely on data and research, so all these tools are set up and work in the company development cycle.
Also, I'd like to build a product team from scratch to take more leadership and product-oriented roles like Product Manager or Owner in some new product direction to build from scratch. I don't want to spend much time on high-abstract-talk-meetings but prefer battle on the field. 

Ideally, I'd like to join a day-to-day product with high retention (at least n-week) or high DAU/WAU/MAU.
