Chisom Otuonyeadike
@chisomotuonyeadike
PMP-certified Agile Project Manager delivering IT platforms and digital transformation with data-driven, end-to-end execution.
What I'm looking for
I'm a PMP-certified Agile Project Manager with 5+ years of progressive experience delivering IT platform rollouts, digital transformation programmes, and complex engineering projects. I lead end-to-end delivery across scope, schedule, cost, risk, quality, and stakeholder management.
As a freelance Agile Project Manager, I have managed distributed teams across multiple concurrent client engagements — standardising sprint planning, backlog grooming, and release procedures to keep all milestones on schedule with full stakeholder alignment. I track deliverables in Jira, maintain real-time dashboards, and ensure executive visibility and governance compliance throughout every project lifecycle.
I'm also adept at blending Agile delivery practices with structured planning — using Agile/Scrum, Kanban, and hybrid delivery models. I've driven continuous improvement by facilitating Agile ceremonies, conducting retrospective analysis, and applying data-driven adjustments to reduce cycle time and scope creep across client engagements.
Across earlier engineering roles, I planned and closed 10+ projects valued at over $1.7M, led cross-functional teams of up to 20, and implemented technology-led safety and reporting improvements. I bring that same collaborative, disciplined, communication-first mindset to IT delivery — turning technical complexity into clear stakeholder outcomes.
