What I'm looking for

I’m looking to drive delivery excellence in remote project management roles across the EU, using my QA and engineering background to de-risk releases, align stakeholders, and build predictable cross-functional delivery.

At BearingPoint and Alfa Bank, I lead end-to-end delivery for logistics, trade operations, and foreign exchange systems, connecting engineering work with business priorities. I’ve maintained 0.00% production defect leakage, 99.9% platform stability, and predictable sprint execution for products serving thousands of daily bookings and 180K+ users.

My foundation in QA helps me prevent delivery risks early: I’ve built Java-based automation frameworks, supported microservices migrations, led teams of up to 11 engineers, and reduced sprint overtime by 96%. I’m looking to drive delivery excellence in remote project management roles across the EU.
