Former COO (Bryj.ai) & Co-CEO (scandiweb) | Operations, Engineering Leadership & AI Enablement
Verified
Operations and delivery leader who helps companies get structured, scale, and ship — across operations, engineering, product, and go-to-market. I move in, find what's broken, and fix it hands-on.
Over the last decade I've scaled and restructured organizations as COO (Bryj.ai) and Co-CEO (scandiweb). At scandiweb I helped grow the company from 25 to 500+ people over seven years into one of Europe's leading eCommerce agencies, personally selling its largest-ever project and running several of its biggest accounts. At Bryj I relocated to Lisbon to launch the Portugal office and run operations hands-on across four countries (US, Canada, Portugal, France), consolidating a multi-country organization into a leaner Lisbon delivery hub.
I work comfortably across borders and cultures — I've led and built teams across the US, Canada, Western Europe, and the Baltics. Based in Lisbon, open to on-site, hybrid, or remote.
What I do: remove operational drag, build scalable structure, translate business needs into technical execution, and create the conditions for real AI adoption — connecting strategy to outcomes.More...
