About me

I read systems nobody documented — and design what replaces them. 18+ years as the analyst on the ground: legacy reverse engineering, integration and data design, process + system TO-BE, prototype-first specs with AI. Contracting via my own company; remote-first, CET.

Application Programming Interfaces (APIs)Data AnalysisBusiness AnalysisData IntegrationSystems AnalysisReverse EngineeringSoftware Requirements AnalysisSystems DesignSystems IntegrationEnterprise Application Integration
Legacy modernization & reverse engineering
Understanding undocumented systems from the source — code, schemas, stored procedures, ETL — and designing their path to modern architecture without business disruption. Several hundred legacy procedures reverse-engineered from source code in 10 months (EPAM, Broadridge × UBS); full AS-IS discovery of a ~500-table network-infrastructure database (Vodafone); replatforming proposal, backlog and roadmap for a monolith EU VAT platform (KPMG).

Integration, API & data design
Analysis and integration design across 10+ interconnected subsystems of a live smart-building platform (MOL Campus): data models, storage structures, data-source selection and job scheduling for a central sensor data warehouse. REST / OpenAPI / Swagger analysis, SQL, entity and retention modeling.

Process + system design (AS-IS → TO-BE)
Business processes designed together with the systems they run on — from email, paper and spreadsheet operations to validated, audited workflows. Workshops with business owners, architects, vendors and UX; process and ER maps, BRDs, functional specifications.

Role-based access & entitlement modeling
Led the access-model design (entitlement → role → employee) for an umbrella admin platform with architects and dev leads; role management go-live for ~3,000 users across 3 vendors (Jul 2026).

AI-enabled, prototype-first specification
My own method, the Excavation Method: excavate, model, prototype with AI, validate before development. Requirements delivered as working HTML prototypes and validated data models (Claude, Atlassian Rovo) — adopted as the common reference by all three delivery vendors on MOL Campus.

Delivery
Requirement lifecycle from discovery to go-live · go-live and cutover planning · multi-vendor coordination · backlog ownership · Agile / Scrum · JIRA, Confluence, Azure DevOps.

Project history

Business Analyst (contractor) — solution design & system integration scope

MOL Nyrt.
MOL Campus smart building program — the digital layer of the company headquarters: 3,000 employees, 10+ digital services, three delivery vendors (frontend, backend, data).

• Owned analysis and integration design for the live campus platform after its handover: 10+ interconnected subsystems (access control, parking, smart lockers, digital signage, service booking, IoT sensor data warehouse).

• Led analysis and solution design of the Campus Platform Admin UI — an umbrella admin layer (first services: lockers, parking, vending, fitness, campus app) that replaced email requests and manual table edits with validated, audited self-service. Designed the role-based access model (entitlement → role → employee) with architects and dev leads; role management go-live for ~3,000 users across 3 vendors (Jul 2026).

• Introduced an AI-enabled, prototype-first specification workflow (Claude, Atlassian Rovo), adopted as the common reference by all three vendors.

• Defined data models, storage, data sources and job scheduling for the central sensor data warehouse; led go-live and cutover of business-critical systems.

Co-founder, Business Analyst / Solution Architect

STUDIOBP.HU Kft.
Co-founded a software company and grew a three-bullet client brief into a salon-management ERP for the Biohair franchise network: product master, revenue and expenses, invoicing, warehouse and central ordering, loyalty and training modules.

• Scaled with the client from ~20 to ~50 salons (35 today), 150–250 daily active users, thousands of guest transactions a day — a client relationship continuously live for 14 years.

• Designed the network's operating processes with owners, salon managers and floor staff — from paper, spreadsheets or nothing to central client identification, network-wide color-formula records, real-time revenue views and one-click goods receipt from central orders.

• Designed the offline-first architecture: an asymmetric sync model that eliminated data conflicts by design and doubled as the update pipeline; dual UX for salon floor and central administration.

• Led the venture phase (2012–2017): angel investment, financial plans and cash-flow models, negotiations with industry majors incl. L'Oréal and Schwarzkopf.

• Since 2026: requirements & product lead for the full platform rewrite (Vendro) — browser-based, multi-tenant cloud POS, AI-assisted two-person build; live in Vienna since Oct 2026.

Business Analyst (contractor, part-time) — telecom infrastructure data discovery

Vodafone
Legacy DUBBO platform — the network-infrastructure database behind towers, antennas and repeaters.

• Delivered the complete AS-IS discovery: ~500 tables, several thousand entities, stored procedures, custom scripts and ETL processes — de-risking the replacement program.

• Reconstructed undocumented data flows and dependencies through structured deep-dive interviews (stakeholders, processes, data); identified every data-extraction interface for the migration.

• Translated future business needs into a structured, prioritized backlog for the target solution.

Business Analyst / Project Manager (contractor) — no-code insurance platform

Innoveo
Swiss–Indian–Hungarian insurtech; no-code platform for insurers.

• Delivered two client projects end-to-end — including for Zurich Insurance (Chicago) — in a 6-person team.

• Combined BA, project management and UX: detailed interface designs, sprint planning and closure, client demos and delivery ownership.

Business Analyst (contractor) — tax-technology platforms

KPMG
Marketplace — an EU VAT-position calculation product for thousands of Amazon EU sellers, processing 100,000+ transactions a month on a monolith ASP.NET portal.

• Self-initiated a GAP analysis of recurring development patterns and used it to propose the full replatforming of the monolith; co-designed the modernization plan with lead developers — critical business bottlenecks first, phased API extraction, replacement of the data-access layer.

• Produced the complete backlog and roadmap for the initiative — proposed, designed and roadmapped; my engagement ended in an organizational restructure before I could see delivery begin. Deliverables: process maps, ER maps, BRDs, functional specifications, architecture plans, GAP analyses.

• Led the internal BA roundtable and authored working materials that standardized day-to-day analysis practice.

• Designed a mobile app delivering regionally structured VAT news and rules.

Business Analyst — wealth management platform (Broadridge x UBS)

EPAM
Broadridge × UBS wealth-management platform — a global multi-squad program (San Francisco, New York, London, Budapest, Kyiv, Mumbai); English working environment.

• Sole business analyst in a 15-person Data Fabric squad (senior backend + DevOps).

• The task: move a working monolith data platform to microservices with no documentation beyond user stories. Reverse-engineered several hundred undocumented legacy procedures from source code in 10 months — the analytical foundation of the migration — while supporting parallel new development.

• Ran discovery meetings, owned squad documentation and progress reporting in a low-access client environment that required self-sufficient, code-based analysis.

Junior Business Analyst / Systems Organizer

BMA Informatika Kft.
Fleet Administrator for fleet-management ERP used by Hungary's largest leasing companies (Nelson, Mercarius — 10,000+ vehicles). Full-cycle work including quoting; key delivery: a real-time fleet-leasing offer calculator computing taxes, service costs, depreciation and annuity from vehicle acquisition value (Delphi / Firebird SQL).

Web & Database Administrator

Puchner Castle Hotel
Guest database and data quality management for a 100-room resort. Customer segmentation with marketing, HTML newsletters to tens of thousands of recipients. Translator and mediator between ownership and software vendors.
