Project Manager

Summary

As a software engineer with over 17 years of experience, have worked on numerous projects and gained a wealth of technical expertise. However, over the past four years, have transitioned into the role of a project manager.

Responsibilities as a project manager include defining project scope, managing schedules, identifying and mitigating risks, managing budgets, and ensuring deliverables meet quality standards. Ability to communicate effectively with stakeholders, manage conflicting priorities, and provide clear and concise project updates has contributed to success. Technical background has also been instrumental in my ability to understand the details of projects and communicate effectively with developers.
