🌍 Building with the Best

Dassault Systèmes powers the future of innovation.

Its software designs jets, guides surgeries, and builds smart cities — before they exist.
Used by the world’s most complex industries, it turns vision into precision.

I was inside that engine — leading high-stakes projects where impact mattered, and excellence was the baseline.

01. The Challenge

Lead high-stakes, strategic projects in a demanding, global environment — where precision, budget control, and cross-functional alignment are non-negotiable.
Ensure project excellence, data reliability, and performance visibility, while managing international teams and decision-makers across complex program portfolios.

02. The Solution

I took ownership of full-cycle delivery and project structure:

  • Managed international projects (Agile & Waterfall), leading all rituals and governance in English

  • Oversaw planning, risk, scope, and change management

  • Designed and implemented strategic dashboards, KPIs, and reporting tools for leadership

  • Audited 220+ projects via Dassault’s VEPI tool, uncovering inconsistencies and proposing improvements

  • Built tools to support margin tracking, requirement formalization, and data reliability

  • Led a global collaboration initiative (Speed Networking) involving 375+ people across hubs

  • Produced high-impact materials for executive committees

03. The Result

Strengthened visibility and control over key performance indicators

  • Enabled faster decision-making and reduced project blind spots

  • Drove project maturity across teams and programs

  • Improved internal collaboration through a structured, global engagement initiative
