Hire the Best Agile Consultants

I drive delivery. As a hands-on program manager, product owner, and business process lead, I turn complex technology and operations work into shipped results, and I move the work forward in days, not months. I have spent five years as one of Upwork's Expert-Vetted consultants, the top one percent of talent, with a 100 percent Job Success Score and more than $600,000 earned. Before consulting I was a software engineer, then a technology executive at Fidelity Investments and Discovery, where I coordinated a $90 million technology budget and led global teams of up to 70. You get a delivery lead who has also sat in the executive seat, so the hard calls get made and the work still ships. Much of that work now involves AI. I help companies find the high-value AI use cases, put the right governance around them, and ship them into production rather than leaving them as pilots. I am a business-side AI leader who translates the use case, manages the delivery, and keeps it accountable to real outcomes. What that looks like in practice: - Rebuilt a medical device startup's delivery process and engineering culture, cutting product dry time about 35 percent and lowering cost of goods - Stood up PMO governance over an entire company project portfolio as VP of the PMO, spanning several acquired businesses - Added machine learning to an IoT medical device so telemetry that once needed manual review is processed automatically - Built AI match-day reporting for Major League Soccer production that consolidated crew surveys into a single summary, with governed AI search now underway for the US Department of Education - Led a US Census Bureau system through FedRAMP authorization to approval readiness I work with teams that want an operator, not a theory. Whether it is a product to build, a program to deliver, a process to streamline, a PMO to establish, or an AI initiative to get into production, tell me what you are working toward and I will tell you how I would get there.

Project Manager who turns fast-moving, messy projects into shipped work. I run Agile and Scrum delivery for software, AI, and business teams, keeping scope, timelines, and stakeholders aligned from kickoff to launch so projects land instead of drifting. I sit comfortably between engineers, founders, and clients. My background spans tech, business, and operations, so I understand the product and the people, the process and the numbers, and I can translate between all of them. That mix means I can own delivery end to end, spot risks before they become problems, and keep everyone moving in the same direction. My first Upwork client rated the work 5 stars and called me "an outstanding hire." I aim for that every time: clear communication, no dropped balls, and outcomes that actually happen. What I do: Delivery and planning: roadmaps, timelines, budgets, risk registers, and clear status reporting from start to finish. You always know what's shipping, what's stuck, and what's slipped. Agile and Scrum: sprint planning, backlog grooming, standups, retros, and steady velocity for technical and software teams that ship often. Comfortable with Kanban, Waterfall, and hybrid setups too, whatever fits your team. Release coordination: what's ready, what's tested, what's still open, and what you tell users. I keep the board honest and chase the things that stall. Specs and requirements: I turn rough ideas into specs a developer can build from without a follow-up call, close loops instead of leaving them open, and flag problems early rather than hoping they land. QA and testing: I test new features before they ship and write up what's broken clearly enough to act on, so bugs get caught before your users find them. Stakeholder and vendor management: I keep cross-functional teams, vendors, and leadership aligned, run the meetings that need running, and make sure decisions get made and remembered. Process and documentation: lightweight process that helps instead of slowing people down, plus documentation your team will actually use. How I run a project: I start by getting clear on the outcome, the deadline, and who needs what. Then I set a simple cadence: a weekly cycle covering what's shipping, what's stuck, what's slipped, and who's waiting on whom. I report status in plain language, escalate early when something is at risk, and close the loop on every decision so nothing gets forgotten. Tools: Jira, Notion, Confluence, Trello, ClickUp, Slack, Microsoft Teams, GitHub, and Google Workspace. Good fits: Startups, founders, and agencies that need a dependable PM to run delivery and keep everyone accountable. Software, AI, and product teams that want structured Agile or Scrum without the overhead. Ongoing, part-time delivery roles where someone has to keep releases, bugs, and decisions from slipping through the cracks. Teams that need a hands-on coordinator to run a specific launch, migration, or transition from start to finish. I also work as an in-country point of contact for teams operating in Nepal, coordinating vetted local vendors and on-the-ground execution and quality. Fully bilingual in English and Nepali, fluent in Hindi, so nothing gets lost in translation or context. Why me: clear and fast communication (I reply within hours and work across timezones), detail-driven, and deadline-focused. I don't just manage tasks, I make sure the outcome happens. Tell me the outcome you need and I'll tell you exactly how I'd deliver it.
