Background

About Eddie Sars

Experienced Agile Project Manager with expertise in mobile app development for iOS and Android. I specialize in leading cross-functional teams and managing all aspects of a project by implementing methodologies such as Scrum, Kanban, and other agile work practices to deliver innovative solutions. I am well-versed in leading innovation projects within R&D, focusing on speed and rapid delivery. Through my work on various R&D projects, I have developed the ability to foster collaboration, optimize processes, and drive impactful results. One example is my work on FLIR’s Car Inspect, which progressed from an R&D concept to a published app in the App Store in less than six months. My strengths include strategic resource planning, including budgeting, clear communication with stakeholders, and delivering complex projects with advanced IT solutions. In addition to mobile and R&D-focused projects, I also have experience leading AI initiatives. Notably, I have driven a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) project involving a multimodal bot, combining language and image understanding to deliver advanced contextual assistance—further enhancing my capability to manage cutting-edge and technically complex projects. In my current role, I ensure that project goals and budgets align with the organization’s overarching strategy. I manage the backlog, prioritize tasks, plan sprints, and facilitate retrospectives. Additionally, I am actively involved in pre-studies, risk analyses, and supporting the sales process by providing precise project estimates. I enjoy working with the latest technologies and am passionate about fostering opportunities for my developers to grow and experiment. I achieve this through a methodology I have developed and apply to every project, focusing on celebrating milestones along the way.
