Hello and welcome! My name is Rui Filipe Sárria, and I am passionate about helping professionals develop the skills, mindset, and confidence they need to excel in today’s dynamic and highly demanding business and technology landscape. Throughout my career, I have blended advanced academic training, internationally recognized certifications, and hands‑on experience across multiple industries to guide teams and individuals toward meaningful and sustainable growth.

I hold a Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering with a specialization in Management from the Faculty of Engineering of the University of Porto (FEUP), one of the most reputable engineering schools in Europe. To complement this technical and managerial foundation, I pursued postgraduate studies in Financial Analysis at Porto Business School, further earning the distinguished CEFA – Certified European Financial Analyst accreditation granted by EFFAS. This combination of engineering, management, and financial expertise allows me to bring a uniquely integrated perspective to strategic decision‑making, project leadership, and organizational transformation.

My professional journey has been shaped by a strong commitment to continuous learning. I hold several globally recognized certifications, including:

PMP® (Project Management Professional)

PSM (Professional Scrum Master)

SAFe® Scrum Master (SSM)

SAFe® Agilist (SA)

SAFe® for Teams (SP)

SAFe® Leadership

Multiple certifications in communication, project management, and engagement management

Additionally, I am certified with the CCP – Certificado de Competências Pedagógicas, which formally qualifies me to deliver professional training and educational programs.

Over the years, I have worked as a Scrum Master, Agile Coach, Agile Transformation Specialist, and Engagement/Project Manager in international, multicultural, and cross‑functional environments. I have supported organizations through complex transformations, guided teams through new ways of working, and fostered collaborative environments focused on value delivery and continuous improvement.

My industry experience spans several domains, such as automotive, life sciences, growth industries, and manufacturing, where I have collaborated with diverse teams and stakeholders. From highly technical engineering environments to digital‑driven innovation programs, I have contributed to initiatives involving:

Product development & product design

Digital apps and platforms

AAOS environments (Android Automotive OS)

Data & AI applications

Multidisciplinary code‑based environments

Enterprise‑level digital transformation programs

This broad exposure has strengthened my understanding of how technology, people, and strategy converge—and how agile principles, leadership, and effective communication can drive real organizational change.
