Results-driven Project Manager and QA Lead optimizing Agile delivery and AI-enabled workflows across game and enterprise teams.
PolandWhat I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Project Manager and QA Lead with 16+ years in IT, specializing in Agile delivery, cross-functional leadership, quality assurance, and AI-driven process optimization. I lead end-to-end execution from planning to release, with a focus on predictable delivery and continuous improvement.
Most recently, at Wargaming in Warsaw, I led a 24-person cross-functional group across Feature, Engineering, Game Design, Level Design, Sound Design, Localization, DevOps, and Data Engineering to support delivery across 2 game products. I established delivery processes that improved prioritization and coordination, optimized Sound Design and Localization workflows (reducing required capacity from 3 people to 2 while maintaining output quality), and introduced AI-assisted workflows that reduced DevOps review effort by 50%.
Previously, at Playtika, I managed 4 teams (30 employees) and owned core game logic development, implementing AI-driven features and planning AI integration across 12 teams, improving operational efficiency by 10%. Earlier roles included scaling Agile practices as a Scrum Master/Agile Delivery Coordinator, and leading QA automation and process improvements that cut regression testing time from 2–3 days to 4 hours–1 day.
