Who am I?
My name is Savelii, full-stack problem solver with more than 7 years of experience in Game Production
As for my title... I’ve pursued diverse roles to build a toolkit for solving end-to-end business challenges, besides that I've rarely seen two companies that had the same expectations for the same role, and sometimes even at the same company expectations mutate over time. That's why instead of claiming myself to be explicitly roleName I focus on functions I perform, value I bring to the table and most importantly getting job done.
I excel at bridging the gap between technical teams and stakeholders to deliver successful and impactful products via market analysis, user research designing requirements, crafting business pipelines and directly overseeing the team. Despite being able to cover multiple roles at once, I understand the importance of collaboration, so no worries, I won't trespass on someone else's territory.

no worries, I won't trespass on someone else's territory.My main area of expertise is in the tech side of game development, but I'm no stranger to fields such as Game Design, Art, AI, Martech and Web3.
