What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can manage end-to-end software asset lifecycles, ensure license compliance, optimize spend, and grow in ITAM responsibility within a collaborative, process-driven team.

I am a Software Asset Manager with nearly two years of hands-on experience managing the full software asset lifecycle using tools such as Flexera, OpenLM, ServiceNow and SaaS Manager. I have led integrations, health checks, license harvesting, contract and vendor creation, PO uploads, and prepared ELP reports from usage and installation data to ensure compliance and cost efficiency.

I have managed renewals, service requests and incidents, assigned licenses for applications including Adobe, Autodesk, Box, Miro, Capepack, Siemens (Creo, SolidWorks), Ansys and acted as application owner for several products. I have negotiated vendor EULAs and handled complex licensing models such as MAU and token-based schemes.

I hold Flexera certification in operations and IT Asset Management and approach ITAM with a detail-oriented, compliance-driven mindset focused on reducing risk and optimizing license spend.
