Schedule AI Strategy CallI specialize in leading modernization initiatives that turn fragile, outdated systems into high-performance, cloud-ready platforms. My work spans full re-architectures, monolith-to-microservices transformations, CI/CD implementations, and legacy code remediation.
I partner with product and infrastructure teams to prioritize modernization efforts that improve scalability, resiliency, and developer experience. From modern UI frameworks to backend optimization and API evolution, every decision is guided by long-term strategic value.
With hands-on experience resolving tech debt under real-world constraints, I ensure modernization efforts support business growth without disrupting operations. Let's discuss how to evolve your platform.
Start Platform AssessmentI've built and led high-performing global teams across onshore, nearshore, and offshore locations. When I say "I build high-performing teams", I'm talking about creating an environment where engineers are aligned, engaged, and consistently delivering high-quality software that moves the business forward. I don't just mean feature velocity--I also mean platform resilience, deployment confidence, and operational excellence. That doesn't happen by accident. Here's how I do it:
I establish clear goals and accountability early on--what good looks like, how we measure success--but I don't micromanage. Engineers need space to make decisions, own their outcomes, and learn from mistakes. Autonomy with Accountability
I do not draw lines between full time and contract, onshore and offshore. Everyone is part of the same team with the same mission. Success comes from aligned goals, open communication, and mutual respect. When engineers around the world are treated as peers, not vendors, the entire team moves faster and delivers better.
I don't treat MLOps/DevOps like an afterthought or a cleanup crew. I embed MLOps/DevOps into planning cycles, treat their roadmap as critical, and make sure they're not constantly firefighting without resourcing or recognition.
Whether it's cost optimizations, cloud strategy, or incident response design--I make sure Infra and SREs have a voice in technical and product strategy. They hold the glue that keeps everything running.
High-performing infra teams reduce friction. I champion investment in CI/CD, MLOps, observability, and self-service tooling because faster, safer deploys and better feedback loops make every team better--from frontend to infra.
I look for people who are not only technically solid but who are humble, curious, and wired to work well in teams. Skills can be taught. Attitude and ownership? That's harder to coach.
I meet 1:1 with team members regularly--not just to check boxes, but to understand blockers, support their growth, and help them connect their work to the bigger picture. I've promoted juniors to leads because I invest in mentorship and skill development.
I make it safe to speak up, ask dumb questions, and respectfully challenge decisions. This builds trust--and when people trust each other, they ship faster and with less drama.
I work with platform teams to define SLOs (Service Level Objectives), track error budgets, and make sure reliability is part of our definition of "done." That gives them room to innovate without risking burnout or degraded quality.
Product, QA, MLOps/DevOps--we're all in it together. I create strong collaboration rhythms between cross-functional partners so no one's in the dark and dependencies are flagged early.
I recognize achievements, both team and individual, and we always run retros--not to assign blame but to improve. A culture of continuous improvement is what separates a team that delivers from one that transforms.
High-performing doesn't just mean 'fast delivery'--it means sustainable speed, high engagement, and a culture of trust and accountability that outlasts any one roadmap cycle.
I am a global executive who thrives on empowering teams, removing obstacles, and driving the delivery of scalable, high-impact software solutions. By partnering with developers, architects, and cross-functional teams, I ensure that technical challenges are met with strategic solutions and collaborative problem-solving.
My leadership philosophy is rooted in understanding the technical complexities of building and scaling SaaS platforms while guiding teams toward secure, maintainable, and forward-thinking solutions. I focus on aligning technical strategy with business objectives, fostering AI innovation, and driving consistent, reliable delivery.
Great management isn't about overseeing every detail. It's about building the environment where people can do their best work.
I do not separate contractors, offshore, or nearshore engineers into a different tier of ownership. I treat every contributor as a fully empowered member of the team, with the same expectations for quality, communication, and impact. When people are included in the mission and trusted with meaningful work, they rise to it. Respect and clarity create engagement. Engagement drives excellence.
Although my role is not 100% hands-on coding, my deep technical background enables me to provide thoughtful oversight, ask the right questions, and make informed decisions that optimize architecture, performance, and development processes. I still code when I have the opportunity. I am passionate about building strong teams through mentorship, open communication, and a culture of continuous improvement-ensuring that we don't just meet deadlines, but deliver exceptional value.
