Magdalena Pawłowska-Talarek

I’m leading couple of roles in my life – wife of home automation lover guy, mother of 12-year old daughter full of energy and horse passion and (last but not least) Women in Tech. I have spent past 15 years working within banking sector as a Project and Program Manager, mainly within Information Security space. However, I have also strong financial background, as I get bachelor’s degree within finance and banking (accounting). My main area of interest lays within process improvements and quality assurance. I’ve spent tons of hours talking with engineers, developers, analysts, subject matter experts and senior managers to figure out how to build security processes in such a way, to minimize audit findings, please risk and control team and also sleep well during the night 😉. I took part in all of the stages of that processes. Starting from analysis, architecture, project management, tracking, testing, implementation and ending as an advocate discussing with audit authorities. My courage, stubborn striving for goals, not giving up and strong communication skills, brought me to where I am today – I’m a Women in Tech – and I’m proud of it.
