Bio

I help automotive, engineering, machinery, software and technical and/or marketing teams make their German content sound clear, natural and reliable in Ukrainian.

My path into translation started with German and English philology, but I quickly realized that I was more interested in how language works in real technical and business contexts. I began my career in Kryvyi Rih, one of Ukraine’s major iron ore and industrial regions, translating documentation on mining, mineral processing, geology, machinery and business communication. That background gave me a practical understanding of technical processes, not just the terminology around them.

Today, I specialize mainly in German-into-Ukrainian translation, editing and localization for the automotive industry, mechanical and electrical engineering, machinery, software UI, technical marketing, legal/business documents and selected niche fields such as water sports and freediving.

Since 2014, I have been working as a freelance translator for international automotive, engineering and manufacturing clients. Recent projects include large-volume technical and marketing translations for vehicle manufacturers, UI localization for automotive configurators, manuals for woodworking and food-industry machinery, military-technical documentation, contracts, policies and business correspondence.

I am a ProZ.com Certified PRO translator for German–Ukrainian and a full member of the Ukrainian Association of Translators and Interpreters. I regularly attend professional translation events and training sessions to keep my skills and subject knowledge up to date.

My focus is accurate, technically sound Ukrainian that reads naturally and respects the standards of the field.

Have a German-into-Ukrainian technical, automotive or engineering text on your desk? Send it my way — I will be glad to help.
