Description

SAFe Scrum Master with a solid technical background of nearly 10 years in DevOps and QA Automation.

After 10 years in engineering (CI/CD, infra, testing), I moved into the role of Scrum Master. This dual expertise allows me to understand developers' challenges and streamline delivery by speaking the same language as tech and product.

Returning from a one-year personal project in South America (immersion travel and language improvement), I am now fully operational.

My Areas of Intervention:

Scaled Agile (SAFe): Facilitation of rituals (PI Planning, Sprint Planning, Daily, Retrospectives).
Facilitation: Supporting teams, removing impediments, and collaborative remote workshops.
QA Expertise: Experienced in complex environments (media, streaming, large accounts).

Availability:

100% Remote (occasional travel possible).
Available immediately.
