What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth, collaboration, and innovation in a dynamic environment.

As a Presales Solution Architect, I bring a strong background in research and development along with extensive project experience. I have led and collaborated with cross-functional teams, successfully recruiting and training colleagues on numerous occasions. My ability to engage with customers, including C-level executives, from both business development and technical presales perspectives has driven successful outcomes.

In my current role at Juris Technologies, I have led the technical presales team globally, contributing to a customer base increase of over 100%. I have designed cloud deployments, responded to RFPs, and presented technical solutions to prospects. My focus on communication and negotiation with vendors has been key to our success, and I have implemented processes to streamline RFP responses, enhancing efficiency and accuracy.

With a solid foundation in software engineering and a proven track record in business development, I am committed to leveraging my technical expertise and market insights to exceed project goals and drive innovation.
