What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead Agile transformation and enterprise delivery, mentor teams, drive measurable outcomes, and partner with stakeholders to deliver high-impact solutions.

I am a results-driven Technical Delivery Manager with 8+ years leading enterprise-scale software delivery, pre-sales engagement, and customer success across banking, SaaS, and digital transformation sectors.

I have managed portfolios of complex projects, led cross-functional teams, and driven measurable outcomes—maintaining flow efficiency above 70%, achieving 100% delivery success across 100+ regulatory releases, and doubling annual release capacity through process improvements.

I champion Agile practices, mentor junior practitioners, and blend business strategy with technical execution to deliver mission-critical solutions that improve customer satisfaction and drive revenue growth.
