👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEmil Iksanov is a data-driven Product Manager with 9 years of experience building AI-enabled and logistics products at startups and large tech firms like Yandex Delivery, ABBYY and Avito. He combines hands-on engineering experience (iOS development and AI project work) with strategic product leadership—designing multi-year automation roadmaps that saved millions and scaling parcel and operations products to tens of millions of monthly users. Notable outcomes include a 190% boost in driver assignment efficiency, 42% business scaling for parcel management, and a 39% ops performance uplift from automation programs. A former founder and hackathon winner, he blends entrepreneurial grit with formal AI project management training from MIPT and a track record of mentoring and onboarding product teams across cultures. An often-overlooked strength is his ability to translate low-level technical work (AR, OCR, chatbot metrics) into measurable commercial impact and operational cost reductions.
