About Virginie

Senior software project manager with 18 years of experience leading critical projects for major players in aerospace, energy, and research (AIRBUS, CNES, EDF, Thales Alénia Space, CNRS). My expertise covers leading multidisciplinary teams, mastery of agile methodologies (Scrum and SAFE certified), and risk and cost management to ensure the delivery of software solutions on time and within budget.

In parallel, I coach and mentor junior project managers to strengthen their skills in planning, leadership, and stakeholder management, while helping them adopt agile best practices and understand the operational challenges of complex projects.

A specialist in demanding environments, I have organized on-call production deployments for EDF, set up reversibility teams, and led agile transformations within traditional organizations. My approach combines rigor, collaboration, and knowledge transfer to create sustainable value.

As a salaried employee, I leverage this dual role—operational expertise and coaching—for assignments where performance, autonomy, and team skill development are key.
