Product leadership
for technically
demanding
environments.

Hi, I’m Liviu Badulescu. I’m a SAFe certified Product Manager, Product Owner and Scrum Master with a background in embedded systems engineering. I work as an independent consultant with companies across Europe, bringing something genuinely hard to find in one profile: deep technical understanding combined with strong product leadership.

Engineer turned
Product Leader

Most product managers come from a business or software background. I came through embedded systems engineering — firmware, RF hardware, AUTOSAR architecture, hardware debugging. That path shapes how I work as a PM in ways that are hard to replicate otherwise.

When I sit in a technical design review, I follow the conversation without needing it translated. When an engineer tells me something cannot be done, I know whether that is a genuine constraint or a prioritisation question. When I write a requirement, the engineering team reads it and knows whoever wrote it understood the problem.

I have lived and worked in France, Germany, the UK, Denmark and Romania. I am fluent in English, professionally proficient in French, and used to operating across cultures without friction.
