Experienced Product Manager I've been working on the Telecom industry for the past 7 years, doing a hands on job on great technological break-through in our market such as the adoption of 1xEVDO, WCDMA, the phase-in of the touch screen phone's era, the differentiation through a digital eco-system, just to cite a few. I started working with Telecommunications through the Vivo Trainee program back in 2004, which allowed me to do a job-rotation inside the company. Inside Vivo I had the opportunity to work at Telecom Engineering, Corporate Marketing and my last job was with the Innovation Platforms Team, where I had contact with all the state of the art and innovative services there was. On that opportunity I also had contact with the Handset Innovation Team which I choose to be my permanent assignment, later on as Product Manager. Since then I was responsible for both creation and analysis of Technical Specifications, product debugging and PRM analysis for all vendors to select the most suitable models for the company. After almost 5 years working for Vivo, I joined LG Electronics as Product Supervisor, being responsible for the management of the LG portfolio for all Brazil's operators, which includes EOL study, price positioning, portfolio launch roadmap analysis, service roadmap and interface with all areas related to the product launch/sales inside the company. On beginning 2010 I changed roles and moved to create the Contents, Applications and Services team inside LG with an increase in responsibility, being responsible for the South and Central America. In 2011 I also included Mexico under my care, becoming full LatAm.
