🔍 I initiated and launched focus tests to gather external feedback. Through contractors and the team, I launched several parallel sources of feedback collection, gaining valuable insights from external sources. This contributed to improving the quality of the product and aligning it with user expectations. 📅 Organized the team into regular "one feature sprints" with a hyper-focus on it. Significantly increased team productivity and efficiency by maintaining a clear focus and regular sprint cycles. 🛠️ Solved the problem of insufficient testing by implementing a T-shape approach. Reallocated part of the team to develop tools for testers, reducing the time required for testing tasks by up to 40%. 📉 Streamlined the UI acceptance process for the game. Minimized post-release UI returns and revisions, ensuring a smoother and more efficient release process. 👥 Created a comfortable environment for communication. Facilitated low-stress communication within the team and with external departments, resulting in the lowest reported stress levels compared to other project teams.

💰 Was Head of Monetization Department (Hero Wars Mobile 100m+ downloads) I led the search for new ways to generate revenue from the product. As a result, we created several bundle optimization systems, introduced a "newbie bundle", "upsells", and improved ad monetization. All of these efforts contributed to the company's monthly revenue growing by more than a million $. 👨‍💼 Managed development of content updates from concept to release Led cross-functional teams in the end-to-end development of approximately 8 projects and features, guiding them from concept ideation to successful product launch 👥 Building an effective development teams Effectively built and managed a high-performing team of 6 professionals, resulting in a project in just 2 months that significantly increased net revenue upon its initial release.
