About

I’m a Technical Project Manager with 5+ years of experience delivering end-to-end software projects in remote and cross-functional environments. With a strong background in QA, I bring a unique advantage to project delivery — ensuring not just speed, but high-quality, reliable releases. I bridge the gap between development, testing, and business teams to reduce friction and improve outcomes. Key highlights: • Led cross-functional teams across multiple time zones • Delivered software projects on time using Agile (Scrum/Kanban) • Improved product quality by identifying process gaps and optimizing QA workflows • Coordinated between developers, QA, and stakeholders to ensure smooth releases I focus on building efficient systems, improving communication, and delivering scalable solutions that support long-term growth. Currently open to remote opportunities with global teams, particularly in SaaS and tech-driven companies.
