In 2001, he became an assistant prosecutor in the Nakhimovsky district of the city of Sevastopol in Crimea.[1] Then, in 2003, he joined the Prosecutor's Office in the city of Sevastopol.[1] On March 25, 2014, he became the acting public prosecutor of the city of Sevastopol by order of Yury Chaika, the Prosecutor General of Russia, and since May 2, 2014, he has been appointed by Vladimir Putin as the Prosecutor of the City of Sevastopol.[1]
