What I'm looking for

I’m looking for Senior Systems Analyst or Product Owner roles in Financial Services, Health, Telecommunications, or Technology—especially in Portuguese/European markets—where I can own full lifecycle delivery and translate complex stakeholder needs into precise technical specs.

I’m a client-focused Senior IT professional with cross-sector experience across Health & Wellness, Banking, Telecommunications, Medical, and Municipal environments. My core strength is translating complex stakeholder needs into precise, developer-ready technical specifications, bridging business vision and technical delivery through structured analysis, system design, and full lifecycle ownership.

I’ve delivered enterprise systems in regulated, high-complexity settings and owned outcomes end-to-end in SAFe Agile environments as both Senior Systems Analyst and Product Owner. At Vitality Global, I drove continuous systems analysis for mobile platforms and translation pipelines—resolving deployment bottlenecks, sustaining multi-language delivery, and guiding decommissioning with reduced operational risk—while mentoring teams to deliver under tight timelines.
