What I'm looking for
I am an Enterprise Solution Architect and Sales Engineering Lead with 20+ years in pre-sales and technical leadership, focused on AI/ML infrastructure and digital transformation.

I've architected multi-tenant, multi-tiered, high-availability platforms and delivered solutions across AI/ML, HPC and data-intensive applications, driving large-scale deals and partner ecosystems. I influence product roadmaps by capturing field insights from strategic initiatives.
In regional leadership roles I have led pre-sales strategy, enablement, PoVs and technical evaluations, contributing to major revenue growth, client retention, and improved PoC efficiency. I have experience executing OEM and managed services partnerships and collaborating with cloud hyperscalers and OEMs.
I am hands-on with cloud AI platforms and a broad technical toolset, and I am passionate about secure, governed architectures that deliver measurable business value. I am flexible to travel across EMEA and comfortable supporting multi-time-zone strategic initiatives.
