ERP Engineering Leader. Business Central specialist. Speaker on Scrum, Systems Thinking, Stoicism, and ethical AI.

Ivan Milanov is an ERP Engineering Leader with 16 years of experience in Microsoft Dynamics NAV and Business Central, including 6 years in engineering leadership. He leads Business Central teams in complex operational environments and speaks about the engineering leadership patterns that apply far beyond ERP: decision-making under pressure, systems thinking, stakeholder trust, and delivery discipline. His work focuses on ERP performance, system stability, engineering culture, Scrum, and the human side of technical decision-making. He has worked internationally across Benelux, Scandinavia, DACH, the USA, and Spain, supporting teams through complex change, production pressure, and business-critical systems. On stage, Ivan speaks as "The Agile Jedi," combining Scrum, Stoicism, and Systems Thinking to help engineering and product teams make better decisions under pressure. His sessions are practical, story-based, and grounded in real ERP experience rather than theory. His talk "Restart. Panic. Repeat." was shortlisted for LeadDev Berlin 2026. Outside work, Ivan enjoys guitar music, basketball, road trips, AI tools, and probably taking too many notes.
