Open to opportunities
Maksym Zakharov
Project Manager / Product Owner
I work across product, development and real-world operations. I optimize and automate business processes: identify bottlenecks, turn them into requirements and working solutions, and deliver measurable results — from SaaS and AI integrations to last-mile delivery and live-service products.
Hosting in Kharkiv and Warsaw operates 24/7. I manage the infrastructure remotely from Germany; Munich marks my location in the region.
