SUMMARY
Project manager with 5+ years in IT and software-hardware product development. Ran up to 13 projects at the same
time in a defence R&D company, working closely with a 40–60 person software team (embedded and control software).
Before that I managed e-commerce projects (Magento, WordPress) in an IT company and ran my own small dev
agency.
I started as a developer (NoCode, JavaScript, React Native), so I understand how the team works and can talk with
developers about real technical details. Strong with requirements, documentation, planning and budgets.
