Hi, I'm András.

I translate between business and tech. 16+ years turning complex business needs into clear requirements, aligned stakeholders and shipped outcomes, as a servant leader fluent enough in tech to have a seat at both tables.

The translator in the room

I've spent 16+ years where business and technology meet: gathering and documenting requirements, writing user stories, co-owning backlogs with product managers, and keeping stakeholders and delivery teams pointed at the same outcome. Along the way I picked up 10+ years of hands-on SQL, Qlik and ETL work, automating away hundreds of manual reports and hours of daily busywork.

I lead by serving: clearing blockers, asking the questions no one else asks, and making sure the people doing the work have what they need. I'm not the deepest specialist in the room. I'm the one who makes sure the specialists and the business understand each other.

Away from the backlog I run Surfing Seagull Games, my one-person indie studio. Building and shipping Unity prototypes keeps my tech fluency honest. I know what a sprint feels like from the inside.

Don't just take my word for it

The track record is in the CV: roles, systems, results.
