What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead and build secure, modern cloud and AI-enabled platforms while staying hands-on with engineering, automation, testing, observability, CI/CD, and DevSecOps.

I built CareerLab, a full-stack AI SaaS platform on Next.js and Cloudflare Workers that compiles career artifacts from structured profiles, with subscription billing, asynchronous AI workflows, and more than 1,000 continuously passing automated tests.

At Lyric.AI, I led engineering for claims-platform integrations, automated regression testing from three days to about an hour, and expanded unit-test coverage across four legacy modules from zero to an estimated 95%. I also led observability and root-cause-analysis work across services using Azure Insights and Datadog.

At Magellan Healthcare, I established enterprise CI/CD and DevSecOps practices, migrated roughly 2,000 repositories to GitHub Enterprise Cloud, and led vulnerability remediation across enterprise applications. Earlier, I helped remediate more than 100,000 vulnerabilities, designed AWS serverless platforms, led cloud migrations, and built enterprise commerce and IIoT systems.

Across 25+ years in healthcare, fintech, consulting, and infrastructure engineering, I've combined hands-on delivery with team leadership, security modernization, Infrastructure as Code, automated testing, observability, and AI-assisted engineering.
