What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead engineering organizations building scalable SaaS and automation platforms, where I can align architecture, product strategy, and delivery while developing high-performing teams.

At Stripe, I lead the Internal Systems Automations Platform team, building workflow solutions with scripting, backend processing, and AI agents to reduce manual errors and scale operations.

Previously at Klaviyo, I led a global organization of 75+ engineers delivering high-throughput customer engagement solutions and helped support ARR growth from $25M to $200M+ over four years. I also owned AWS infrastructure and operations, engineering OKRs, roadmaps, and people development.

Across Syniverse, Infosys, MACH, Temple Technologies, and Tech Mahindra, I’ve delivered SaaS platforms, API gateways, REST services, streaming systems, mobile applications, and telecom solutions. I bring 20+ years of experience aligning architecture, product strategy, delivery, and engineering teams.
