What I bring to a team
Documents teams build from
BRDs, FRSs, user stories with acceptance criteria, and a traceability matrix from requirement to test.
Maps before systems
BPMN as-is and to-be maps, and process redesign before anything is automated.
Agile and Scrum
PSM I certified. Backlog refinement and sprint planning with developers, so requirements stay buildable and testable.
UAT to sign-off
UAT planning, test cases from the requirements, defect triage and documented sign-off.
Agreement that holds
Facilitated workshops and the 4C Framework, ending in documented decisions rather than verbal ones.
RPA that pays back
Candidate scoring and bot specifications for UiPath and ProcessMaker, taken from as-is map to deployment.

Your working day, in mine
Full overlap with UK and European working hours. Lagos is level with them, or an hour apart, all year.
Most of a Gulf working day overlaps a WAT working day.
US East Coast mornings overlap a WAT afternoon.

Each bar is that city's 9am to 5pm, placed in Lagos time. The shaded band is my 9 to 5. West Africa Time is UTC+1 all year, with no daylight saving.
