As Program Manager my biggest achievement was leading the development of a complex electromechanical module for HP. The project consisted of developing and producing a huge electromechanical module for a high-speed large format printer.

I was in charge of overseeing the entire Product Development Process, from requirements gathering and solution design to development, testing, deployment, and mass production release.

The Key aspects of this project included

1.Strategic planning: I developed a plan including the project Objectives, scope, and deliverables, as well as timelines, milestones, and resource requirements.

2.Stakeholders management: I engaged with key stakeholders such as business leaders, external vendors, and customers to keep them all on the same page, ensure alignment, and address concerns.

3.Risk Management: Identifying potential risks and challenges associated with product performance, compatibility with external modules, material availability, etc.

4.Collaboration and Communication: I facilitated collaboration and communication among cross-functional teams involved in the project, including engineering, operations staff, and materials, to ensure alignment.

5.Quality Assurance: Implementing robust testing processes and quality assurance measures to ensure reliability and performance.

6.Mass production release: Worked with all operational teams to ensure material and factory readiness to launch the program to mass production

Finally, the project was released on time and satisfied all stakeholders, internal and customer. This reinforced the importance of clear and transparent communication between stakeholders to drive successful technical outcomes and foster a collaborative team environment.

The accomplishment that I am most proud of is when my manager asked me to move to Malaysia to set up a new Factory and the Operations department in Kuala Lumpur.

It was my job to get all licenses and permits required to allow our factory to run under the country's regulations. I had to define the different roles needed like Product, Process, Quality, and Planning engineers. In addition, it was also my responsibility to manage the transfer of 3 different product lines from China to Malaysia.

To make that happen, I kicked off the project with the stakeholders to define the goals, budget, and plan for the opening of the new factory. I defined all milestones, and I collaborated with HR team to define the total HC needed, the different roles, the timeline for each incorporation, and the budget. With the Legal department, I worked closely to get the licenses and permits required for our company to operate in Malaysia. Together with the Operations team, I worked on the factory layout, material readiness, staff training, and the assembly lines transfer plan from China to Malaysia.

After 9 months of deep collaboration with cross-functional teams, I completed the project on time and within budget. It was a great learning opportunity that challenged my program management and leadership skills. Finally, the transfer resulted in a cost down of 5% for our customer in the products transferred to Malaysia.

When buildling the next generation instance, during the planning phase I budget the amount of servers we will launch the product with. Given each server cost was over 2 million dollar I biased to towards frugality and provided a bare minimum number of server we could launch with. But what I completely missed was during the developement some servers will end up in bad state and the engineering team will short of servers to test the software and firmware getting built which made meeting the project timeline riskly and heavily dependent on delivery schedules of servers and them staying healthy. This quickly became a bottleneck that I realized. I quickly put togther a plan to request adittional server and provide a detailed breakdown on where and how these would be used during and after developement. Synced with the hardware and ODM team and executives to get a approval and ordered the parts to get the servers and racks build at ODM. 

I graduated in May 2024 and recently wrapped up my role at Bright Mind Enrichment. It was a great experience, and I stayed through my agreed-upon commitment.  At this point, I’m looking for a full-time opportunity that offers deeper ownership, long-term growth, and technical mentorship—especially in a full-stack environment like Atlassian’s.

Situation:
While working on the CloudGate (CASB) program at Oracle, I had to collaborate closely with a lead engineer who was highly technical but often resistant to input from non-engineering stakeholders, including program managers like myself.

Task:
Our shared goal was to integrate CloudGate’s policy engine with a third-party SaaS provider under tight deadlines for a compliance milestone. Coordination was critical, but communication friction risked delaying delivery.

Action:
I focused on building mutual respect by first acknowledging his technical expertise and then shifting our interactions to be data- and goal-driven. Instead of pushing process, I came to discussions with clear risk/impact scenarios and timelines tied directly to customer and audit deadlines. I also adapted my style—fewer meetings, more async updates with technical clarity—which matched his preference. Gradually, we established a working rhythm built on outcomes, not personalities.

Result:
We delivered the integration on time, passed the compliance audit, and by the end of the project, had built enough trust that he started proactively surfacing risks to me before I had to ask. The experience reinforced for me that adapting communication style and focusing on shared goals is often more effective than trying to change personalities.

While determining the best model for a machine learning application for a customer classification model, I suggested a two model approach while my team member suggested a single model approach. We discussed the pros and cons during a whiteboarding session, agreed on the two model approach and would fall back to the one model approach if the two-model approach did not drive client success. The model was successful.
