VAIRIX - COO - Scrum Master - QA

Mar 2014 – Nov 2016 (2 years 8 months)

VAIRIX Software Development

At VAIRIX I performed different roles. For one side I was the COO of the company and, in that role, I helped with the overall strategy and the sales. Because of the Scrum tradition of the company, one of my operational functions was to be the Scrum Master of different projects. Other operational functions were the development and implementation of strategies to align personnel with company goals. Also, I made continuous improvements in the public visibility of the company, taking care of the blog, the social networks engagement and participating in conferences as speaker.
