Radu Blanovschi
@radublanovschi
Operations & Technical Service leader who stabilizes multi-site services and fleet execution.
What I'm looking for
I bring structure to technical operations that have outgrown their own systems. I don’t generate insights—I provide clarity, especially where handoffs, tools, data, and suppliers meet and no one clearly owns the outcome.
Across Lime, Bird and Bolt, I’ve led service centers, mechanic teams, and multi-site operations. I migrated 2,000 vehicles without a service gap, redesigned a shipping process that saved €40,000 in freight, and ran a facility with 15,000 vehicles at peak and teams up to 32.
My strength is finding exactly where execution breaks down—then turning it into practical workflows, clearer accountability, and measurable improvement. Earlier work in CRM implementation, IT infrastructure, and international transport gives me a systemic view, and I build trust with technical teams, customers, suppliers, and senior stakeholders by translating unclear requirements into concrete execution.
