What I'm looking for

I seek a role leading and growing engineering teams, owning technical delivery, improving processes with automation/AI, and working on customer-focused, high-impact projects in an Agile environment.

I am an engineering manager with 8+ years in industry, leading teams of up to eight engineers across startups, scale-ups, consulting and government clients. I combine hands-on technical expertise (.NET, Azure, C#, SQL, frontend technologies) with a strong track record in incident management, architecture, and delivering high-impact solutions under accelerated timelines.

I focus on coaching ICs and managers, facilitating Agile processes, improving workflows with automation and AI, and aligning engineering delivery to product and customer outcomes. My work has earned internal awards and external recognition, including a company hackathon win and shortlistings for leadership awards.
