Recommendations
5 people have recommended Marta
“Marta is a great person, not only personal, but also at work. Highly professional, she has over-reached all her task and
goals. Always delivering in an independent way, having an eye for what is important, what else needs to be done and
how to reach any kind of goal. Having her in the team was a huge treasure. Thank you, Marta, for all your efforts.
Wish you all the best”
— Melanie Kreuzer, Marta worked with Melanie in the same group
“Marta is a brilliant PM, great person and the problem-solver of 80th level. I had a pleasure to work with Marta who
held a position of PMO, resolving issues of all existing projects, excellently managed other PMs, launched a new office
and administration from scratch. Marta brings clearness of what’s going on, feeling of security and reliability in quite
stressful situations. That is her natural skill.
I highly recommend Marta not only as a professional PM, awesome Mentor, but also as a great person with amazing
ideas, skills and talents!”
— Anna Maranchuk, Anna reported directly to Marta
"I worked with Marta on Danger-Microsoft project of sustaining engineering team in GlobalLogic company. She
displayed a great deal of tenacity in troubleshooting network issues, system setup and recovery. She constantly
improved her skills in test automation (Selenuim, custom java-based test framework) and Linux and was involved into
automated test creation for performance and load testing. She also showed good theoretical knowledge and practical
experience in manual test planning and execution."
— Tatyana Kovalyova, managed Marta at GlobalLogic
"I've worked with Marta at one of the Microsoft projects for a year. She's a diligent QA that possesses great analytical
skills and capable of fully using them to test really complex systems. While her strong technical skills allow to plan and
make it thoroughly and effectively on all layers. Also she's a very nice and kind person, and I would gladly work with her
again."
— Anna Gavriluk, worked directly with Marta at GlobalLogic
"I've spent four years working with Marta and I can tell you, she's a hell of a tactician, one of the most respected
individuals at "Shag" back in the days. She's at her best when you let her do the planning and execution control, a
natural leader with great sense of personal responsibility. She can establish common ground with any person, capable
of both resolving conflict, building up a sense of team and trust, as well as managing emergencies. She keeps her cool
even in the most stressing situations and typically has everything under control within minutes. She is incredibly
dedicated and hard-working, and her rare ability to drive tasks through to completion no matter what never stops to
amaze me. Marta is well versed with a wide variety of technologies and is a natural engineer. Despite this, I feel she's
better placed as a manager of a technical team, this is where you can get most out of her innate management skills as
well as her technical background. I have had great time working with her, and so did everyone on the team. I think a
great deal of manager's success can be measured by his team's loyalty and respect, and, well, in Marta's case, she
used to be known as Marta-sama and we held annual celebration ceremony in her name :)"
