What I'm looking for
Professional Bio: Operations & Systems Architect
I am a senior Operations Lead and Systems Architect with 15 years of experience specialized in designing the foundational blueprints—operational, technical, and regulatory—that allow organizations to scale with precision. With a background anchored in International Business Administration, I bridge the gap between abstract executive strategy and the granular technical logic required to execute it at scale. My career is defined by an ability to enter complex environments and engineer the "operational engine" necessary for long-term stability and growth.
In the realm of strategic engineering, I have a proven track record of developing robust operational structures, comprehensive SOPs, and compliance protocols. For example, in the Healthcare SaaS sector, I designed original frameworks that established a high standard of due diligence and operational integrity. My approach focuses on building "audit-ready" systems that ensure every department is aligned with global quality standards and executive goals.
My expertise extends into greenfield infrastructure development, where I specialize in building complex service departments from the ground up for national-scale delivery. This includes the end-to-end launch of specialized healthcare call centers, where I have designed technical IVR logic flows, established recruitment and training frameworks, and implemented quality monitoring systems. These infrastructures are built to maintain high service standards even during periods of rapid user growth and organizational transition.
Beyond physical infrastructure, I am an expert at creating a "Single Source of Truth" within high-volume data environments. I have successfully designed and deployed comprehensive reporting ecosystems for major hospital networks, mapping complex service data into centralized dashboards. By standardizing performance tracking through these tools, I enable leadership to make data-driven decisions based on accurate, real-time insights.
Furthermore, I identify systemic bottlenecks and provide the technical roadmaps to resolve them. For tier-one insurance providers, I have authored high-level risk management tools and restructuring blueprints that align technical infrastructure with core business development goals. My work is supported by a suite of professional credentials, including ISO Internal Auditor certifications (9001, 22000, 14001) and CompTIA Network+/A+ infrastructure training.
I am a grounded, "straight-talk" communicator based in Romania (EET) who thrives in remote-first environments. I don’t just find problems; I build the systems that prevent them. I am currently mastering Python to further automate data auditing and operational workflows, ensuring that the systems I build remain at the forefront of technical efficiency.
