Work Background
Teammanager Geo Services
DKV MobilityTeammanager Geo Services
Jul. 2022 - Apr. 2024Bucharest, RomaniaAs Geo Team Manager I had the challenge of transitioning from Project to Product Team as well as expanding the Team Capacity in order to deliver Product increments. In my experience the most applicable expression which applies to this challenge is the "Change is one of the few constants of our times" as the Transition and adaptation to a bigger Team with new Members led to having several Forming and of course Storming Phases before reaching calmer waters. Having a mixed Team as well as several Legacy Artifacts the challenge was to transition to the Azure world which we successfully accomplished and are nearing completion in achieving our goal. I am thankful for being able to grow my knowledge as well as experience in regards to the Business Topics alignments as well as Roadmap structuring as several discussions and alignments with Stakeholders are required for this. I am thankful for the valuable exchanges I had with Project Managers in aligning on what is in scope of being achieved and constantly keeping track of the timeline. Also valuable I found the cross department collaboration experienced as it helped all parties in growing closer and actively collaborating towards achieving the same goals. As new Challenges are always around the corner I am happy and looking forward to delivering on new Products and Services to our customers and Stakeholders with the Geo Team.
Team Manager EV Services
DKV MobilityTeam Manager EV Services
Jul. 2021 - Jul. 2022Bucharest, RomaniaAs EV Team Manager I was tasked with leading my first Agile Scrum Development Team. During this time I learned a lot on what an Agile Scrum Team is and how it is performing in delivering Software Features and Solutions. I handled both the Team staffing as well as balancing Business and Project requirements in alignment with the Product Owner and the Solution Architect, hence contributing to the expectation management and achievement of Team commitments. The cultural aspect was also crucial as bringing together Team members from both Romania and Germany and achieving a good collaboration, which I am still thankful for the many great get-togethers and alignments on technical and personal level. One of the biggest challenges while in the EV Team was to streamline and update to the latest standard of solutions that were implemented however were not scalable, hence not in line with the Principles of Software delivery we set out to achieve. Also, one of the great challenges was the GreenFlux integration and alignment in order to make sure we are able to offer our customers the best services when it comes to EV Charging. Speaking of projects, the NextOpsEMobility project comes to mind as being one of the most ambitious undertakings involving several departments, including CPS and EV, in the quest to provide our customers with a complete solution for Wallboxes. Within the Alignment and Planning phase of this great initiative we were able to learn and adapt to collaborating with different teams and technologies and many valuable details came to light which helped us improve our concept.
