👋 Hi! My name is Anna Kolbasova and I am an experienced Product/Project Manager with a deep understanding of Blockchain/Web3 technologies, ML, AI, construction and engineering systems, and renewable energy. With a strong foundation in Agile methodologies and tools, I excel in driving efficient product development using Scrum techniques.
Throughout my career, I have successfully created and managed product roadmaps, tracked milestones, and produced comprehensive Product Requirements Documents. By gathering customer insights and conducting market research, I have collaborated with cross-functional teams to deliver innovative and customer-centric solutions.
What sets me apart is my deep understanding of the blockchain industry and its potential to revolutionize various sectors by creating transparent and secure systems. I specialize in DeFi smart contracts and NFT development, applying my expertise in blockchain fundamentals such as smart contracts, Web3, and DAOs. Additionally, I am knowledgeable about decentralized exchanges and other DeFi protocols.
My experience extends to developing applications on prominent blockchains like Ethereum, Solana, and Polygon layer 2 side-chains. I have a strong command of programming languages such as Solidity, Rust, and JavaScript, enabling me to create, compile, test, and debug smart contracts. Furthermore, I possess full-stack development skills using JavaScript, Flask, PHP, React/Express/Node.js, MYSQL/MongoDB, Serverless/Lambda, S3, EC2, Cloud9, and SAM CLI development on AWS Cloud.
Collaborating in cross-functional teams, I have successfully built web3 platforms with a focus on IT modernization and digital transformation. I am a multiple-time winner at ETHGlob Hackathons for Dapp development, securing top honors such as ‘Best Dapp,’ ‘Most Ambitious Dapp,’ and ‘Best Use of Data Feeds.
In addition to product management, I have a strong foundation in AI Product Management and a passion for using AI to solve real-world problems and create impactful products. I am proficient in machine learning and have received training in ML using Google AutoML. I’m eager to join a team driving the next generation of AI products.
Alongside my engineering background, I have also established and operated my own engineering company over the span of approximately 15 years. In the construction and engineering domain, I optimize processes, ensure seamless project execution, and offer innovative solutions like solar-powered heating and geothermal systems to reduce carbon footprint while maintaining reliable HVAC.
What truly drives me is the opportunity to collaborate on transformative projects and contribute to a greener, more connected future. I am eager to connect and explore how we can make a difference together. Let’s embark on this exciting journey and shape a better tomorrow.
