I'm Nikita,
Delivery & Product Manager

I take a launch from signed contract to go-live — on schedule, on budget, with every stakeholder still speaking to each other.

What I Bring

Delivery Expertise

The three things every launch actually needs, handled end-to-end.

◆

Delivery & Process

Agile/Scrum and Waterfall, backlog grooming, budget and timeline tracking — kept honest under real constraints.

◆

Stakeholder Coordination

Legal, business, external vendors, engineering — aligned toward one shared deadline, 20+ providers at a time.

◆

Technical Integration

API and cloud integrations across MuleSoft, SAP, and Salesforce — a technical foundation, not just a schedule.

Why You Hire Me for Your Next Launch?

Because a launch isn't one job — it's ten jobs pointed at the same deadline. I keep budgets, vendors, legal, and engineering pointed the same direction, and I say early when something won't fit rather than at the deadline.

Working With Me

What You Can Expect

Not client quotes — just the commitments I actually keep.

I flag budget or timeline risk early — never at the deadline.

Every stakeholder gets a clear, honest status — no surprises.

I understand the technical layer, not just the schedule on top of it.
