What I'm looking for
I am a strategic and outcome-focused Product Owner with over 13 years of experience driving product development and delivery in the transportation and aerospace domains. My proven ability to lead cross-functional teams and manage complex stakeholder expectations has allowed me to translate technical and customer requirements into high-performing software products. As a Certified Scrum Product Owner, I have honed my expertise in agile methodologies, system integration, and product lifecycle management.
Throughout my career, I have successfully led the end-to-end product lifecycle for Wabtec’s flagship onboard application, delivering multiple major releases used globally. I defined and prioritized product backlogs based on business needs and customer impact, facilitating PI planning and sprint planning to improve team velocity significantly. My collaborative approach across engineering, QA, and program management teams has ensured timely delivery and customer product acceptance, while my focus on documentation and sprint metrics has enhanced team transparency and delivery confidence.
