I led the full platform rebuild from an outdated version to a new highly scalable, user-friendly, and easy-to-manage and maintain platform by rebuilding all the key components, from user authorization and user experience to all backed functions and analytics.

I led the digital transformation, merger and implementation of the new core banking system, correspondent banking, and all payment-related products: SEPA, SWIFT, internal payments, and salary payments.

I was the agile project manager who led the creation and implementation of a field management system, where incidents would be registered and assigned to field engineers.

Incidents would be either registered in the external system and integration done to FMS or directly registered in a web app. Field engineers would receive notification in a mobile app, and could do all their tasks there, including task management, time management.

Main Tasks:
• Led a distributed remote team.
• Oversaw the product backlog.

The overarching project involved the merger of two banks in the Baltic region with more than 15 legal entities across three countries. The individual sub-projects consisted of an HRMS carve-out, a data migration, and a service takeover by a customer (from the BPO to in-house data employee management).

I led the creation of a new digital product: a jukebox but reborn digitally called Groov.it. I helped the product owner and acted as the scrum master. The product consisted of a web app for bars and other entertainment venues, and a mobile app for customers who can simply choose a song and order it—essentially, bringing the good old jukebox into the 21st century.

I implemented the Alice Insurance engine, based on SAP, for an international insurance company. The goal of the project was to create the insurance system's global template and implement in the first country.
