Requirements Engineering
At the core of software creation, I always prioritize the people who use the system.
Clear client goals are essential, but understanding the needs of all stakeholders is what makes the difference.
Analytical skills and interpersonal qualities go hand in hand: asking questions, actively listening, sharing ideas, and sometimes engaging in constructive debate.
Empathy is not just a comfort factor — it helps uncover real needs and forms the foundation for actionable requirements.
This all has long been a deep personal drive for me.
In fact, it was this passion for requirements engineering that ultimately led me into software engineering.
My Approach
Guided by IREB/CPRE principles, I focus on creating measurable, testable, and traceable requirements. I combine analytical rigor with interpersonal skills:
- 🗣 Ask the right questions, actively listen, and clarify perspectives
- 💬 Share ideas openly and engage in constructive debate
- 🤝 Build empathy to uncover real user needs and align expectations
Key Work Products
I deliver clear, actionable artifacts that form the foundation for successful implementation:
- 📄 Requirement specifications (functional & non-functional)
- 📊 Use Cases and UML diagrams to bridge business and technical language
- ✅ Acceptance criteria and test scenarios for validation
- 🔗 Traceability matrices linking requirements to tests and implementation
- 🗂 Data and process models for clarity and alignment
Technical Perspective
Although coding is not typically part of requirements analysis, my hands-on experience in C#, .NET, and system integration allows me to:
- 💻 Accurately estimate effort and feasibility
- ⚙️ Provide guidance on implementation constraints
- 🛠 Support feasibility studies with small test applications, especially for external system integration
Outcome
The result of my work is a detailed, actionable concept, ready for implementation. I ensure alignment between business, IT, and governance — making complexity understandable and decisions actionable.
