About

As a Senior Technical Program Manager, I have extensive experience working in Agile environments for embedded automotive companies, delivering projects such as TCUs, clusters, HUDs, and autonomous driving systems. I have managed Agile projects using Kanban and Scrum methodologies, overseeing teams ranging from 10 to 70 FTEs across various platforms. My background as a Quality Manager includes auditing and creating QMS based on standards like ISO 16949, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and OHSAS 18001. I am also a Certified Functional Safety Professional and ASPICE Assessor, familiar with quality tools like FMEA, 8D, 5S, and 5Why. My experience in program and quality management has honed my skills in handling stressful situations and multicultural projects, driving projects from inception to completion. In my recent role at Box, I delivered training sessions, conducted risk management assessments, and managed technical projects for clients, collaborating closely with stakeholders to ensure quality delivery. At Intive GmBH, I led a project team of 50 people, improving customer satisfaction and resolving project issues efficiently. My role at APTIV Services Poland involved overseeing software project planning and development, ensuring resource usage within budget, and maintaining project schedules. Additionally, I have worked as an External Consultant and a Project Manager/Quality and FuSa Manager, leading development teams and managing various aspects of software quality assurance. My education includes degrees in IT Services & Management, Quality Management, and Material Engineering, along with numerous certifications in quality and safety standards.

Best back-end engineers I've ever worked with.

“I interviewed about a dozen different firms. DevsData LLC is truly exceptional – their backend developers are some of the best I’ve ever worked with. I’ve worked with a lot of very well-qualified developers, locally in San Francisco, and remotely, so that is not a compliment I offer lightly. I appreciate their depth of knowledge and their ability to get things done quickly.”
