What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead delivery end-to-end—owning architecture, full-stack engineering, and DevOps maturity. I’m open to remote or relocation and thrive coordinating distributed teams across time zones.

I’m a Tech Lead and Senior Engineer with 13+ years across full-stack development, cloud infrastructure, and engineering leadership. I’ve operated at every layer—from React and Laravel to Docker/Kubernetes and AWS—bringing hands-on depth with clear delivery ownership.

As CTO & Co-Founder of Teknomines for 7 years, I founded and scaled the company to a team of 10+ engineers. I built and mentored cross-functional teams from zero, set technical standards and career frameworks, and led client discovery through architecture and delivery sign-off across 20+ projects.

In my current role at an international consultancy (South Africa), recruited through a competitive 4-day technical evaluation, I lead end-to-end technical delivery for identity management, content delivery, and video distribution platforms. I architect full-stack solutions using Laravel, React JS, Node JS, MySQL, and AWS—owning both application and cloud infrastructure decisions.

I also drive DevOps maturity through Docker containerisation, Kubernetes orchestration, and CI/CD pipelines with Git-based deployment triggers. From Ubuntu Linux security hardening and operational automation to NGINX/MySQL performance tuning and AWS scaling thresholds, my focus is reliable releases, measurable performance, and engineering teams that can execute confidently.
