@zachludwig
I am an Implementation Specialist and Business Analyst delivering enterprise software solutions.
What I'm looking for
I bring over 10 years of experience in business analysis, implementation, and product development across Risk Management, Safety, and enterprise SaaS solutions. I have led SCRUM teams, managed multi‑million dollar implementations, translated complex stakeholder needs into functional specifications, and delivered training and post‑implementation support while maintaining an active Secret Security Clearance.
My strengths include requirements gathering, process mapping, system configuration (Dynamics D365, Salesforce, iMIS, ComplianceQuest, Intelex), and driving continuous improvement through collaborative problem solving. I focus on pragmatic, compliant system designs that align with strategic objectives and produce measurable operational benefits.
