Engineering Manager and Senior Solution Architect delivering secure hybrid cloud, network, and cybersecurity transformations—and now enterprise AI audit value.
MauritiusWhat I'm looking for
I’m an Engineering Manager and Senior Solution Architect with 18+ years delivering cloud, network, cybersecurity, and service-provider solutions. Since early 2026, my enterprise AI audit work in Mauritius focuses on identifying opportunities for generative AI and workflow automation while strengthening cybersecurity controls for secure adoption.
I’ve led multinational engineering teams through multimillion-dollar transformations, translating business requirements into technical architectures, delivery plans, and implementation guidance. In my roles, I advise C-suite stakeholders on product strategy, technology choices, costs, and delivery trade-offs, and I mentor junior solution architects to drive practical adoption of emerging technologies.
My delivery track record includes hybrid cloud modernization with Terraform-based IaC, delivering cost reduction and higher availability, plus greenfield network and security builds from day one. I also run end-to-end network security and SD-WAN operations—using structured incident management, change control, and agile practices to improve productivity, incident resolution, and service management maturity.
