Anshu R.

Project Manager who turns fast-moving, messy projects into shipped work. I run Agile and Scrum delivery for software, AI, and business teams, keeping scope, timelines, and stakeholders aligned from kickoff to launch so projects land instead of drifting. I sit comfortably between engineers, founders, and clients. My background spans tech, business, and operations, so I understand the product and the people, the process and the numbers, and I can translate between all of them. That mix means I can own delivery end to end, spot risks before they become problems, and keep everyone moving in the same direction. My first Upwork client rated the work 5 stars and called me "an outstanding hire." I aim for that every time: clear communication, no dropped balls, and outcomes that actually happen. What I do: Delivery and planning: roadmaps, timelines, budgets, risk registers, and clear status reporting from start to finish. You always know what's shipping, what's stuck, and what's slipped. Agile and Scrum: sprint planning, backlog grooming, standups, retros, and steady velocity for technical and software teams that ship often. Comfortable with Kanban, Waterfall, and hybrid setups too, whatever fits your team. Release coordination: what's ready, what's tested, what's still open, and what you tell users. I keep the board honest and chase the things that stall. Specs and requirements: I turn rough ideas into specs a developer can build from without a follow-up call, close loops instead of leaving them open, and flag problems early rather than hoping they land. QA and testing: I test new features before they ship and write up what's broken clearly enough to act on, so bugs get caught before your users find them. Stakeholder and vendor management: I keep cross-functional teams, vendors, and leadership aligned, run the meetings that need running, and make sure decisions get made and remembered. Process and documentation: lightweight process that helps instead of slowing people down, plus documentation your team will actually use. How I run a project: I start by getting clear on the outcome, the deadline, and who needs what. Then I set a simple cadence: a weekly cycle covering what's shipping, what's stuck, what's slipped, and who's waiting on whom. I report status in plain language, escalate early when something is at risk, and close the loop on every decision so nothing gets forgotten. Tools: Jira, Notion, Confluence, Trello, ClickUp, Slack, Microsoft Teams, GitHub, and Google Workspace. Good fits: Startups, founders, and agencies that need a dependable PM to run delivery and keep everyone accountable. Software, AI, and product teams that want structured Agile or Scrum without the overhead. Ongoing, part-time delivery roles where someone has to keep releases, bugs, and decisions from slipping through the cracks. Teams that need a hands-on coordinator to run a specific launch, migration, or transition from start to finish. I also work as an in-country point of contact for teams operating in Nepal, coordinating vetted local vendors and on-the-ground execution and quality. Fully bilingual in English and Nepali, fluent in Hindi, so nothing gets lost in translation or context. Why me: clear and fast communication (I reply within hours and work across timezones), detail-driven, and deadline-focused. I don't just manage tasks, I make sure the outcome happens. Tell me the outcome you need and I'll tell you exactly how I'd deliver it.
