About Ernestina

Operations & Account Manager with 10+ years helping teams deliver better, faster, and with less friction — through scalable processes, AI automations, and clear execution frameworks.

Experience building scalable operational models, managing senior stakeholders, leading multidisciplinary teams, and translating strategic objectives into actionable execution with measurable results. Background across startups, agencies, and public sector with focus on efficiency, account growth, and delivery excellence.

What I do day to day:

- Design and maintain operational dashboards and executive reporting (KPIs, project tracking, workload visibility) and translate data into actionable decisions.
- Document and implement lightweight SOPs for recurring tasks, standardize cross-team workflows, and reduce operational friction through low-risk no-code automations.
- Coordinate daily execution across Product, Marketing, Sales, and Customer Service — resolving dependencies, designing workflows, and escalating when needed.
- Support hiring, onboarding, vendor management, and budget control.

Tools & methods I work with regularly:

- Dashboards & Reporting: Notion, Airtable, Google Workspace, KPI boards, executive reports
- Workflows & Automation: n8n, Make, Zapier, Airtable/Google Workspace integrations, automated pipelines
- Project & Process Management: planning, roadmapping, milestone tracking, process documentation
- Operations & Administration: agenda coordination, meeting organization, documentation, budget control, vendor management
- People & Teams: onboarding, role definition, performance tracking, internal communication

I care about building clear work environments with good communication and execution focus, so teams can work with less friction and more impact.
