Turn operational chaos into automated, scalable workflows so founders can focus on growth. I help growing agencies, SaaS startups, and B2B companies protect their margins and execute their vision. See me not just as a strict project manager, but as a true operational partner (Integrator) who fosters a culture where your team actually enjoys their workflows. With an Industrial Engineering background, an MBA in Data Science & AI, and 6+ years managing high-stakes operations for global leaders like Medtronic and B. Braun, I bring "zero-margin-for-error" discipline to agile businesses. I know how to manage people, enforce strict standards, and keep projects moving without burning the team out. 💼 What I Can Do for You as an Operations Manager (Integrator): ✔️ Workflow Architecture: Build a "Single Source of Truth" in your CRM (ClickUp, Notion, Asana) that your team will actually adopt and use. ✔️ Team Accountability: Act as the "diplomatic enforcer" who follows up on tasks, runs efficient 15-minute standups, and ensures deadlines are met. ✔️ Process Engineering: Transform messy supply chains, digital pipelines, or client onboarding into clean, documented Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). ✔️ Bottleneck Resolution: Proactively identify risks and eliminate operational friction using Lean Six Sigma principles and data-driven root cause analysis. ⚙️ How I Scale Your Systems with Automation & AI: ✔️ Workflow Automation: Connect your tech stack (using Zapier/Make) to eliminate manual data entry and save your team hundreds of hours. ✔️ Smart Operations: Leverage my Data Science & AI background to implement LLMs and AI-driven systems that streamline your business processes. 🛠 Tools & Methodologies -Project & Ops: ClickUp, Notion, Asana, Monday, Jira, Airtable. -AI & Automation: Make, Zapier, ChatGPT, Prompt Engineering, Python. -Methodologies: Lean Six Sigma, Agile, SOP Development, CAPA, ISO/FDA Compliance. -Languages: English (Fluent), Spanish (Native), French (Fluent). 📈 Success Stories -Managed and scaled a cross-functional team of 60+ personnel in a highly regulated manufacturing environment, ensuring zero-delay execution and strict accountability. -Re-engineered complex operational workflows using time-and-motion studies, reducing cycle times by 30% and increasing sustained output by 15% without increasing overhead. Led the digital transformation and validation of high-volume production lines for enterprise clients, translating complex requirements into actionable team workflows. 🤍 Beyond the Data (My Leadership Style): Outside of engineering workflows, my core passion is coaching. Early in my career, I tutored over 150 students in complex mathematics and programming. I bring that same coaching mentality to my teams today. I don't just enforce rules; I mentor your staff so they understand the why behind the process. My goal is to build highly autonomous, resilient teams that hit deadlines without the burnout. 🚀Let’s secure and scale your operations. Stop letting operational bottlenecks slow down your growth. Send me a message to schedule a quick 10-15 minute intro call to discuss your current workflows and team alignment.
