@peterpitan
Experienced Agile Scrum Master with 8+ years leading Agile methodologies.
What I'm looking for
As an accomplished Agile professional with over eight years of experience, I specialize in leading Agile and Kanban methodologies to optimize project delivery and enhance team productivity. My expertise includes managing large-scale projects, migrating on-premises solutions to the cloud, and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS.
In my current role at Aviva, I successfully managed multiple software projects, including enterprise car rentals and fraud detection systems. I implemented automation for release cycles and continuous integration, resulting in improved stakeholder satisfaction through timely, high-quality application upgrades. I also spearheaded the development of an internal application platform, collaborating with cross-functional teams to integrate microservice architecture and maintain regulatory compliance.
Previously, at DNA Financial Group, I guided developers in migrating on-premises solutions to cloud-based applications, reducing development delays and improving data accessibility. I led the development of a digital banking platform, achieving on-time completion for all project milestones. I also established data governance metrics and improved system performance through optimized software configuration and deployment.
