Employee Testimonial: Yana Krasnova, AI & Environmental Strategy Lead, NL

“At Kolo, growth isn’t about titles, it’s about impact.”

What I appreciate most about working at Kolo is the space I’ve been given to create meaningful impact. I’m challenged constantly, both intellectually and strategically, which keeps me deeply engaged. It’s not just about doing a job; it’s about building something that matters, alongside people who genuinely care. Leadership listens, trusts, and values what you bring, and that kind of environment keeps me genuinely motivated every day.

When I joined as an AI Engineer, I ended up moving into AI and Environmental Strategy Lead within about a year. The role was shaped at the intersection of my interests and the company’s evolving needs, and that flexibility has allowed me to grow in ways I couldn’t have predicted. Beyond the title change, I’ve been able to contribute to different projects and strategic decisions throughout the organization. Growth here isn’t linear: it’s dynamic. If you’re proactive and you bring value, doors open.

This role puts me at the center of two of our most important focus areas: AI and sustainability. It’s a unique vantage point that lets me help shape how we scale—not just faster, but smarter and more responsibly. I see my work influencing both the systems we build and our evolving culture. That’s both exciting and meaningful to me.

You’ll do well at Kolo if you’re curious, adaptable, and energized by complexity. This isn’t a place for people who want everything laid out in a neat structure, but if you’re motivated by purpose, and enjoy solving hard problems, and thrive when given the chance to lead your own way—then there’s real opportunity here.
