What I'm looking for
With over 18 years of software engineering experience, I have successfully led teams to tackle complex problems and deliver results using the .Net and Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFCC) technology stacks. My career has been marked by my ability to manage global teams of developers, enhancing major websites while ensuring high performance, security, and scalability through the use of AWS and Azure.
In my recent role as a Senior Developer, I utilized Node.js for deploying code and managed version control through Git and GitHub, integrating CI/CD processes to streamline project workflows. My leadership extends to overseeing volunteer-driven organizations, where I mediate conflicts and present new initiatives to the Board of Directors, ensuring engagement and alignment with organizational goals.
