For over 20 years, I’ve led engineering, architecture, AI, and platform transformation initiatives for SaaS, logistics, fintech, and enterprise technology organizations. I specialize in scaling high-impact products, modernizing complex infrastructure, driving significant cost optimization, and aligning technology strategy with clear business outcomes. My work has helped grow platforms from early-stage to enterprise scale — supporting revenue growth from approximately $1.5M to over $65M, building and leading global engineering and product organizations of 60+ people, and delivering cloud-native platforms used by thousands of enterprise customers, including multiple Fortune 100 companies. Core areas of expertise: • SaaS and cloudnative platform architecture • AI and automation strategy • Enterprise systems modernization and migration • Engineering leadership and high-performing operating models • Platform scalability and cost optimization • Security, compliance, and governance (SOC 2, ISO 27001) • Building and scaling global engineering teams I partner closely with executive leadership to translate complex operational and technology challenges into practical, measurable execution plans. Although I’ve spent much of my career in executive leadership roles, I remain deeply hands-on with architecture, AI systems, cloud infrastructure, and product execution. I’m always interested in connecting with organizations solving ambitious operational and technology challenges.
