Creating platform opportunities and scalable, user-friendly (mostly digital) products, which surprise and delight, with a product and engineering mind. This passion drives me every day: from strategy, planning and overseeing online applications and E-Commerce platforms, leading Onshore and Near-Shore development teams, by enabling and motivating team members to outperform, improving processes in product life cycles and operating with agility in this day and age. Having worked with global B2B/B2C heavyweights like ABB, adidas, Philips, OSRAM, Schneider Electric to local markets (SMBs), gave me great insights and a chance to constantly learn and never stand still.
