I am a solution architect with more than 9 years of experience in the insurance sector, especially in claims. In addition, I have in total over 20 years of experience in shaping and delivering strategic IT projects in a wide range of industries, countries and cultures. I’ve got proven ability to deliver solutions to business demand in international projects with multi-cultural teams. One of my key assets is my knowledge and ability to perform various different roles with mastery.

In addition to the business and technical knowledge, my strong leadership, communication and organizational skills joined with deep understanding of project management practices help me support the business and IT management, development teams and vendors to jointly deliver successful projects. I’m experienced in conducting and facilitating requirements gathering (functional and non-functional), defining and documenting business processes and entity models, converting requirements into solutions, defining and executing all test phases, and designing enterprise and systems architectures covering software, data, integrations, hardware, networks and security.My customers, colleagues and vendors have praised me for my ability to quickly comprehend broad topics and processes, come up with feasible, innovative and cost-effective processes and technical solutions that take into consideration the business and financial constraints. I have also been complemented for my ability to communicate the ideas, plans, requirements and definitions understandably both in writing and verbally and in different ways based on the audience – e.g. C-level executives, non-technical business people, architects, SMEs, security personnel and developers. During my career I have gained international experience both as a vendor and as a customer. I possess vast experience in all areas of software project life cycle: from concept design, RFI & RFP, analysis/definition, design, implementation, to testing and moving complex IT systems to production and maintaining them.
