Experience
- "MAKULATURA ONLINE" LLCPayment Systems SpecialistRAW MATERIALS INDUSTRYJune 2025 - Today (1 year)Moscow, RussiaA remote 6-month internship with a mid-sized secondary waste material recycling company with 30+ employees, where I had previously interned with the same product: a payment system for managing payouts to individuals for delivered recyclables. The company was scaling this tool into a B2B product for other recycling businesses, and I was invited to support client onboarding during this scale-up phase.During the internship my task was to join the process after an initial sales contact was established and:
- Map the standard client journey from first demo to go-live and maintain Excel trackers with meetings, statuses and stakeholders for all prospects.
- Schedule and organise online product presentations, send invitations and reminders, and host Zoom conferences, moderating Q&A and routing specialised questions to the right internal experts.
- Record outcomes of each interaction and provide structured input for contract preparation and follow-up actions.
- Coordinate technical onboarding: connect client IT specialists with the internal tech team, monitor progress on integrations, access rights and configuration.
- Collect regular feedback after launch, log issues related to payouts and user accounts, and pass them to relevant teams to improve service quality.
As a result, the company obtained a clearer, repeatable process for onboarding new B2B clients, with fewer communication gaps between sales, technical teams and customers, and a faster transition from initial interest to active use of the system. I gained hands-on experience with a digital B2B product in the scale-up phase and with coordinating remote collaboration between multiple stakeholders. - SKEMA Business SchoolMaster Thesis Research - Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)RESEARCHApril 2025 - September 2025 (5 months)Paris, FranceTeam-based research project on CBDCs (ethical, legal, technical aspects and public expectations) completed under tight school requirements and deadlines, with little guidance on the defence format. I co-led the practical research and took ownership of structuring the work and keeping the project on track when my teammate struggled with organisation, creating task checklists and timelines in Tappsk and Excel.
- Designed and deployed an online survey in Google Forms (100 respondents), grouping questions into thematic blocks on awareness, understanding, expectations and concerns.
- Developed an interview guide for business and industry experts; managed outreach and scheduling, conducted interviews via Zoom and produced edited transcripts using Whisper Transcription.
- Managed the structure and formatting of the final document to meet academic standards and coordinated the creation of two complementary defence presentations.
As a result I have achieved an “excellent” grade (~18/20); delivered robust quantitative and qualitative data that underpinned the thesis analysis and strengthened my skills in research design, workflow organisation and stakeholder communication. - "MAKULATURA ONLINE" LLCBusiness Development ManagerRAW MATERIALS INDUSTRYFebruary 2023 - July 2023 (5 months)Moscow, RussiaMid-sized waste management company with 30+ employees, located in Moscow, Russia, specializing in secondary waste material recycling.
