Hi, I saw your posting for a Portuguese-speaking BA, and I believe it's a perfect match for my background as a DevOps Team Lead. I’m a DevOps Team Lead based in Brazil, mostly of the time I spend acting as the bridge between complex technical infrastructure and business requirements. For this role I can contribute with: Technical Fluency: Unlike a traditional BA, I have a deep understanding of APIs, system architecture, and data flows. I can translate stakeholder needs into Jira stories that developers actually understand. Communication: I’m a native Portuguese speaker and I already manage teams and clients in the US, so I’m very comfortable navigating the cultural and language nuances between both sides. Agile Native: I basically live in Jira and Confluence. I’m used to managing backlogs, to ensure that the UAT actually meets the business goal. I'm looking for a long-term partnership and would love to chat about how I can help streamline your delivery over the next 18 months. Cheers!
