About Benjamin Gardner

As a Localization and Project Manager based in Montreal, I bring over 5 years of experience at the intersection of linguistics, localization, project management, and AI innovation. I specialize in leading cross-functional teams, driving multilingual software and AI projects, and managing end-to-end localization workflows across diverse markets, including European and East Asian regions. My background spans everything from hands-on linguistic data analysis to overseeing multi-million dollar fundraising initiatives and directing client-facing product localization efforts. Whether coordinating contract teams of 15+ or collaborating with engineers and designers, I ensure every project is delivered on time, within scope, and tailored to local language standards and cultural context. Recent roles have seen me: Develope internal AI tools that increased productivity by 300% Lead strategic messaging and branding for enterprise-level campaigns Manage complex localization pipelines in fast-paced startup environments Skilled in tools like Jira, Asana, Figma, Excel, SQL, and fluent in English and French, I’m passionate about combining technology and language to create globally accessible products. Currently seeking new challenges to deepen my impact in the localization, project management and the tech space.
