Work experience

Project-менеджер

from 12.2025 to now (10 months)
Alconost, Дистанційно (IT)

Transferred to the Localization Project Manager role, serving as the primary client contact to scope, estimate, quote, and independently manage simultaneous LQT, HT, and MTPE projects through parallel and sequential workflows. I direct end-to-end workflows across numerous concurrent projects, collaborating directly with client development and product teams ranging from 2 to 15+ stakeholders each, coordinating internal teams (2–10 members per project), and 150-200 external vendors simultaneously.

This also involves building and coordinating cross-time-zone teams and launching new locales with volumes exceeding 50,000 words per language. My portfolio spans LQT, cultural adaptation, and the localization of UI, game content, websites, apps, and marketing materials, heavily utilizing Crowdin, MemoQ, Phrase, Xbench, and Verifika.

To optimize these workflows, I actively apply LangOps practices, developing API-connected project tracking dashboards and custom scripts to automate the import/export of spreadsheet data. Additionally, I manage continuous localization pipelines with varying SLAs and update schedules for diverse enterprise, software, and gaming clients, including three ongoing major iGaming/gambling clients.

Localization Vendor and Talent Manager

from 10.2025 to 12.2025 (3 months)
Alconost, Дистанційно (IT)

Prior to my promotion to a PM, I managed a large database of global linguists and data labeling specialists, directing end-to-end recruitment, testing, and continuous quality monitoring. I oversaw all vendor relations, handling rate negotiations, resolving complex edge cases, mitigating delivery risks, and strategically building customized teams tailored to specific project requirements.

Translator and QA/LQA Specialist

from 01.2020 to 10.2025 (5 years 10 months)
Synergium UAB, Дистанційно (IT)

Translation and evaluation (QA & LQA), localization of applications and web services, machine translation post-editing and translation “from scratch”.

I ensured on-time, high-quality project delivery by performing dual roles in translation and Quality Assurance (QA) as well as Linguistic Quality Assurance (LQA) within multi-stage workflows. Some topics I have experience in: education, automotive, general, military (and machinery
equipment), technical manuals, marketing, adaptation (UK to US English, US to UK English).

* IT & Cloud: Localizing UI for the Alibaba Cloud Platform.
* Gaming & Apps: Localizing game descriptions for a major Android app store, localizing various app interfaces, LQT of games
* Digital Marketing: Continuous translation and adaptation of high-impact digital marketing campaigns for Google Ads.

Additional information

As a Localization IT Project Manager at Alconost, I independently manage several high-volume iGaming and diverse gaming projects
(including mobile, narrative, chat simulators, sandbox titles, and Steam games) for major companies and smaller studios. I
oversee UI localization, the adaptation of marketing materials, and LQT for web services and apps. With 6+ years of experience in
localization and an MS in Information Management Systems, my daily focus is driving projects from start to finish. I coordinate internal and
external localization vendors and collaborate directly with clients' product and development teams to ensure smooth text integration.

While my core work is hands-on project management, I actively integrate LangOps practices using GitHub and AI tools to automate QA
pipelines, streamline file handoffs, and manage complex spreadsheet data. Having worked on both sides of the process, as a localization
tester, translator, and manager, I have a practical understanding of LQA and bug triaging.

Thanks to my content management background, I
also have strong experience adapting creative texts and tailoring localizations to specific regional nuances and strict client requests. I would
love the opportunity to bring my cross-functional management experience to your team as a Project or Localization Manager.
