Technical engineering program leader delivering distributed AI-driven SaaS platforms for measurable real-world impact.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Technical Program & Engineering Leader in Distributed Platforms and AI-Driven Systems with 14+ years of experience delivering complex software platforms and distributed systems across fintech, consulting, and technology environments. I turn advanced technology into scalable production platforms by aligning architecture, engineering execution, and product strategy.
Currently at Digital Harbor, I lead delivery of distributed SaaS platforms and developer ecosystems, coordinating cross-functional teams of 30+ engineers across three countries. I direct platform roadmaps across cloud infrastructure, AI/ML capabilities, and blockchain-based systems, while managing a ~$2M annual budget and reporting delivery metrics and system risks to executive leadership.
Earlier, I led enterprise technology transformation at Banco Fassil, modernizing digital banking systems and reducing processing time by 50%, and I directed ISO 27001 implementation to establish security architecture and governance. At KPMG and PwC, I led technology risk, system governance, and audit programs—driving SAP implementation and achieving 100% regulatory compliance—so security, governance, and delivery performance remain inseparable in how I work.
