Volkswagen App
I was responsible for authoring the technical proposal that Volkswagen selected alongside the commercial offer—successfully competing with other providers.
I served as Project Manager, UX/UI Lead, and Engagement Manager for the team responsible for the entire app lifecycle—from discovery and stakeholder alignment to delivery and iteration. I managed a multidisciplinary team of five professionals and collaborated directly with HR leadership, IT teams, developers, and end users, ensuring alignment of business goals with technical feasibility and user needs.

Although Volkswagen initially drafted the user stories in a simplified format, I often stepped in to fulfill the role of Product Owner, rewriting and structuring them properly within Jira, which served as my main project management tool throughout the engagement.
To ensure efficiency and quality across the product lifecycle, as Project Manager and Engage Manager, I managed a dedicated HR Squad composed of:
1 Tech Lead
1 Senior Full Stack Developer
1 Mid-Level Mobile Developer
1 UX/UI Designer
1 QA Analyst
E-monitoring and SAP were used to organize the finances.
One of the most challenging parts of the project wasn’t pushing code or aligning with stakeholders—it was surviving the internal financial reporting reviews. As shown in this screenshot, I presented the monthly delivery and forecast reports to Adriana Oestreich, Capgemini’s VP of Operations and Chief Delivery Officer, and Gleydison Farias, Director of Delivery Excellence. Notice how red my face is? That’s not a filter—it’s the natural consequence of justifying every line item under intense scrutiny! Humor aside, these sessions were critical to keeping the project financially healthy, on track and accountable at the highest level of delivery governance.
About The Project
We designed an intuitive interface focused on clarity, accessibility, and mobile usability. The visual language followed Volkswagen’s global brand standards and design system. Wireframes and prototypes were validated with real users across departments before development.
About The Project
Our work didn’t stop after delivering all the core features. We went further by facilitating a discovery workshop to explore what the app could become if redesigned from scratch—this time leveraging emerging technologies like AI. As part of this vision sprint, we designed a new visual concept for the app and prototyped an AI-powered HR assistant, opening the door to a smarter, more conversational user experience for Volkswagen employees.
