  Since 2016, I have worked as a Technical Manager and General Manager, applying management methodologies adjusted to the project size. For contracts exceeding R$ 2 million, I develop and apply structures based on PMBOK, focusing on rigorous control of scope, time, cost, and quality. For smaller projects, I use an agile methodology adapted from SCRUM, favoring fast and flexible deliveries. Risk management is carried out in a structured manner, using tools such as the Probability x Impact Matrix, SWOT Analysis, Ishikawa Diagram, and Monte Carlo Analysis for scenario evaluation, ensuring data-driven decision-making and prevention of critical deviations.
