“My experience working with Narcisa, our Engineering Lead, while I was handling the Product Manager role ... was one of the best, to say the least! Having her on the team was a game-changer for our organization. Narcisa's got this amazing knack for making everyone feel at ease, which is gold as she seamlessly got different teams like Bizops, Data, Product, and partner Engineering to play nice together. Her people skills aren't just good; they're top-notch. She's the kind of person who listens, really understands, truly collaborates, and then acts in a way that brings everyone on board. What sets Narcisa apart is her curiosity and how she tackles problems. She doesn't just look at a business issue and see it as is; she digs deep, asks the right questions, and comes up with novel tech solutions. Her approach made our work so much smoother, and as a result, we were launching new features 10x faster. It's rare to find someone such a brilliant problem-solver and a fantastic team player. Can't wait to work with her again.”
