Senior operations leader driving product, program and agile transformations for global tech firms.
What I'm looking for
I am a senior operations and program leader with 16 years of experience guiding product, engineering, and business operations across Europe, APAC, and North America. I specialize in Agile transformation, OKR-driven planning, and cross-functional leadership that delivers measurable outcomes.
At talpasolutions I led a customer-centric data reinvention, secured €15M Series B funding, drove 400% revenue growth, and orchestrated multiple acquisitions and product launches. I also delivered 20% cost optimizations through operating model redesign, DevOps efficiency and strategic supplier negotiations.
In enterprise engagements I have scaled delivery teams dramatically, accelerated release cycles by up to 75%, and established Agile governance and operating models that improved velocity and decision timelines. I have designed data-driven governance dashboards and led C-level programs to uplift talent and execution quality.
I bring an empathetic yet pragmatic leadership style, strong people-ops sensibilities, and a track record of transforming organizations through coaching, change management, and product-led growth initiatives. I hold engineering credentials and multiple agility and product certifications.
