What I'm looking for
I am a multi-certified Product Owner and Project Manager with extensive experience leading Agile teams to deliver product strategy and high-impact solutions. I define and execute product vision and roadmaps, aligning initiatives with stakeholder requirements to enhance business objectives and customer experience.
At Critical Techworks I collaborated with BMW to translate complex business requirements into actionable technical specifications and prioritized backlogs to streamline delivery. I have driven regulatory and compliance-oriented projects, including FATF travel rule implementation and coordination with financial stakeholders.
As Product Owner and Project Lead at Luso Digital Assets and CoinOTC I launched and managed product lifecycles for platforms such as a Centralized Exchange, a Crypto Real Estate platform, and crypto payment processing, ensuring scalability and regulatory compliance. I apply KPI-driven decision-making, backlog management, and iterative MVP development to reduce risk and increase product-market fit.
I combine strong technical proficiencies (PHP, Java, Python, Vue.js, MySQL/PostgreSQL, REST APIs) with tools like Jira, Confluence, Figma and GitHub, supported by certifications in Professional Scrum, Scrum Product Owner, and Agile Leadership. I prioritize cross-functional collaboration, data-informed prioritization, and continuous improvement to deliver stable, valuable products on time and on budget.
