Certified PMP, PSM II, PSPO II. I run software delivery end-to-end and fix teams that ship late, ship the wrong thing, or burn out doing it. Over 10+ years across e-commerce, real estate, CRM/ERP, blockchain, e-learning, BI, and games, I've led as Project Manager, Scrum Master, Agile Coach, and Engineering Manager — most recently for two US proptech companies (Roofstock, Mynd). What I do for you: - Own Agile delivery: sprint planning, backlog, ceremonies, stakeholder alignment, risk and dependency management. - Build and lead engineering teams: hired 10+ engineers, onboarded 15+, led 8–10 people across 2 Scrum teams. - Drive Agile transformation and coaching: process and metric design, servant leadership, team communication and motivation. - Turn fuzzy ideas into clear requirements, user-story maps, and a delivery plan the team can execute. How I use AI in delivery: I work AI-native, not buzzword-deep. I put agentic coding and code-review assistants to work speeding up engineering, wire AI agents into the team's Jira/Confluence to kill status-meeting overhead, and use AI research and notebook tools to turn scattered docs into clear, build-ready requirements. Certified in GenAI for Project Managers — I bring a practical playbook for where AI actually saves a delivery team time, and where it doesn't. Results (real, from Roofstock & Mynd): - Cut property-maintenance cycle time 54% across 75% of properties by restructuring intake and standardizing the sprint workflow. - Raised CSAT 35% across 69% properties. - Improved margin 29% across 67% of line items. - Held sprint planning accuracy at 80% with PR cycle time at a 20h median. - Kept 75%+ of sprint capacity on new-feature work vs. maintenance.
