As a certified SAFe SPC and PMI PMP, I have carved a niche for myself by founding DevOps departments & service propositions from ground zero in two outsourcing organizations. Serving as a Solution Architect for over 15 projects from inception to release, I have honed my expertise in leading teams to success (references from clients are available upon request). Furthermore, I have engineered and implemented an SDLC platform tailored to PMO and Leadership teams, thereby offering comprehensive quality control of code, inclusive of financial data, and project health check dashboards.
With over 17 years of enriched experience in product management, analytics, and architecture design, I have successfully steered an R&D team of 240+ personnel in my last FinTech project. In a span of merely 1.5 years, I played a pivotal role in increasing the employee count from 90 to 245 across 7 locations. I pioneered the incorporation of LeSS into the organization, established round-the-clock L1/L2 support departments for both B2B and B2C, while managing and enhancing the Company Solutions infrastructure. Additionally, I created and upheld the infrastructure for clients, which was built on platforms like Amazon AWS and MS Azure. As part of my pre-sales activities, I entrenched DevOps practices in solutions departments. My most recent technical accomplishments include designing solution architecture for diverse clients, migrating a 14-year-old legacy application to a microservice-oriented application using one-by-one service replacement methodology, conceptualizing DWH solutions for a gambling enterprise, and envisioning the complete redesign of solution architecture to migrate from legacy systems. Moreover, I was responsible for the architectural design of top 5 FinTech UK projects, including IoT hardware projects, where I designed both the hardware and the connection protocol as well as the software approach.
I am actively seeking a dynamic and challenging role that offers both social security and a harmonious work-life equilibrium. A position that values the enrichment of its employees' lives as much as it values the richness of its own innovation is what I am looking for.
