Focused on building reliable, scalable systems and high-performing teams within complex enterprise environments.
- Leading multi-team engineering organizations (30–60+ engineers) delivering mission-critical systems
- Defining technical strategy and execution plans aligned to long-term business priorities
- Scaling teams, platforms, and processes in regulated and high-availability environments
- Partnering closely with Product, Architecture, Security, and Operations at the portfolio level
- Engineering strategy & technical vision — setting multi-year direction while enabling near-term execution
- Organizational design & talent — building leadership depth, succession, and sustainable team structures
- Execution at scale — predictable delivery across teams with complex dependencies
- Engineering excellence — reliability, quality, security, and operational maturity
- Cross-functional leadership — strong partnerships with product, design, and executive stakeholders
- Led platform and product teams supporting systems with millions of users and high-availability requirements
- Modernized legacy architectures, contributing to 30–50% improvements in deployment frequency and lead time
- Established shared services and internal platforms adopted by 10+ teams, reducing duplicated effort and operational risk
- Improved reliability and incident response through clearer ownership and observability, resulting in measurable reductions in Sev-1 incidents
- Scaled teams while maintaining engagement and retention through clearer career paths and leadership development
My background is rooted in hands-on engineering, with a focus on systems that must operate reliably at scale.
I care deeply about:
- Clear ownership and accountability
- Overall developer experience
This profile primarily reflects exploratory work and selective contributions. Most of my professional impact comes from enterprise platforms, internal tooling, and organizational leadership rather than public repositories.
- Teams that are accountable, curious, and resilient
- Systems that are boring in production and easy to operate
- Engineering cultures grounded in trust, clarity, and continuous improvement
