I am an IT Project Manager and Senior Consultant with more than 20 years of international experience in Supply Chain Management, SAP implementations, and Cloud (Azure) projects. Throughout my career, I have combined a strong technical background with solid project management skills, enabling me to bridge the gap between business requirements and technical execution. My certifications in PMP, SAP, and Microsoft Azure support my ability to deliver projects successfully in complex and dynamic environments.
Over the years, I have led multiple SAP rollouts across Europe, focusing on SD, LE, and MM modules. These projects involved template rollouts, custom developments, integrations with Transportation Management Systems, and data migration. I am familiar with the full project lifecycle: gathering requirements, designing blueprints, customizing, testing, training, and managing change. My work often required close collaboration with international stakeholders, ensuring alignment between local needs and corporate standards.
In addition to SAP, I have designed and implemented Cloud-based architectures in Microsoft Azure, supporting digital transformation programs. This includes designing APIs, managing data integrations, and deploying solutions that improve business performance and scalability. I am comfortable working with development teams on technical topics such as Azure Functions, REST interfaces, and system integrations, while at the same time managing the project delivery with Agile/Scrum methodologies.
One of my strengths is the ability to coordinate cross-functional and international teams. I have successfully managed projects involving on-site and remote teams across multiple countries, ensuring that milestones were met and risks were managed effectively. Tools like Jira, Confluence, and MS Project are part of my daily toolkit, and I place great emphasis on transparent communication and stakeholder engagement.
Although my main focus is SAP and Cloud projects, I also bring additional experience in IoT and industrial integration. I have participated in initiatives involving system integration with plant devices (such as SCADA and PLCs), which has given me valuable insight into bridging IT with operational technology. This experience allows me to add value in contexts where digital transformation meets real-world production and logistics operations.
In terms of soft skills, I am known for being highly organized, adaptable, and committed to results. I have a proven record of leading teams, mentoring consultants, and managing stakeholders at different levels of the organization. My international exposure has taught me how to work effectively across cultures, balancing technical detail with executive communication.
I am currently looking for freelance, remote opportunities in Europe, where I can leverage my blend of project management, SAP expertise, and Cloud architecture knowledge to deliver value. Whether leading large-scale ERP rollouts, managing digital transformation initiatives, or designing integration architectures, I bring both the technical expertise and leadership skills needed to ensure successful project outcomes.
