What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a senior engineering leadership role focused on backend, infrastructure, and big data where I can mentor teams, drive modernization, and deliver highly available, scalable solutions in a collaborative, innovation-focused culture.

I am an engineering leader with 20+ years driving backend development, infrastructure, and big data systems using Java, Python, AWS and distributed-system patterns.

I have led modernization of large-scale data infrastructures, managed global engineering initiatives, acted as interim manager, and directed teams to deliver highly available enterprise applications while improving onboarding, documentation, and reliability.

I seek to foster strong engineering culture, mentor engineers, and lead projects that modernize systems and deliver scalable, mission-critical solutions.
