About
Senior engineering leader with ~20 years in software and technical program execution, including a decade leading multi-team orgs. I’ve run high-scale platforms (2M+ TPS, 400PB+) at 99.998% availability with $80M+ budgets, while coaching managers and senior engineers to raise the bar. I build cultures of ownership and excellence—pairing talent development with GenAI adoption to boost velocity ~40%. I drive multi-year, cross-functional initiatives in ambiguous spaces, align VPs and partners across Legal, Product, Eng, Data Science, BD, and Security, and install durable mechanisms for hiring, performance calibration, and execution used across orgs.
