Denis Turkov — Co-Founder

I partner with D2C brands to increase conversion and auto-resolve support tickets using AI Agents. So they can see +10-35% conversion growth in complex categories and 60% of automated support tickets. For over 15 years, I've helped 30+ enterprise E-Commerce brands (like ALDI, Hornbach, Pistor) to launch in 16x countries, scale up to 50.000 order / min or 300M-3B EUR GMV each. What I offer: 1. Launching D2C Agentic Commerce use-cases. From requirements and POCs to full-scale production launches, considering your requirements and technology landscape (dated systems, insufficient PIM, missing integrations/middleware etc). A few the most often use cases I work on: - Buyer assistants - Return/Support agents - Backoffice agents (PIM, CSM, Procurement) 2. Training for Agentic Engineering. Enabling AI-based software development with full-day hands-on workshops. Exercises are tailored for cross-team collaboration, from Software Engineers and Devops to PMs and UX designers. This massive change requires a complete team experience. 3. Strategic Sessions for Business and Technology Leaders. Supporting IT-org challenges, business use cases and org transformation on 3x levels: - technology & tools - personal: fears and frustration - team: roles, responsibilities, required skills and the new structure Want to learn about successful transformation cases and how they could be applicable to you - DM me or book a call. 📅 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐚𝐧 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 https://calendar.app.google/vvbaZwSHp96kEj5y7

Agentic Engineering Trainer for Enterprises

Nov 2025 – Present · 5 mos

Agentic Engineering and Vibe Coding come misunderstood and bring frustration even to the most senior engineers in IT organizations. But when ignored it only widens the efficiency gap between first movers and the rest.
I help IT-heavy companies to experience actual 10x gains, overcome the learning curve and get engineering teams onboard.
What I offer.
1. Hands-on Team Workshop.
A full day guided workshop for cross-functional teams (all roles invited). From setting up tools, to requirements brainstorming, specification, implementation, and to brownfield project onboarding and scaling SDLC. We make it 90% practical, using tasks from your daily work.
More: https://execuro.com/agentic-engineering-workshop/
2. Tech Leadership Strategy Support.
Enablement and Strategy session for CTO and IT-leaders to identify revamp targets, and review team structure, role & responsibilities changes, and SDLC processes to adopt AI practices in real enterprise context in a sustainable way.
If you want to see real AI outcomes or get more proof on how AI changes software development - DM me.
