What I'm looking for

I seek senior leadership roles where I can lead engineering at scale, modernize platforms, drive reliability and performance, and partner with executives to deliver measurable business impact.

I am a technology executive with 20+ years leading large engineering organizations, scaling high-performance platforms across Video, OTA, Payments, Social, and Mobile domains. I drive multi-year technology strategy, own engineering roadmaps, and partner with C-level stakeholders and multiple business units to accelerate delivery.

I have led 75+ engineers and established governance frameworks that delivered measurable outcomes: major infrastructure cost savings, near-perfect uptime, crash-free stability, library modernizations, and workforce optimization without losing feature throughput. I champion modern practices, GenAI adoption, and standardized solution reviews to improve velocity, quality, and observability.

My hands-on background spans multimedia systems, real-time communications, mobile and backend architectures, and cloud platforms. I focus on building engineering culture, automated CI/CD, and resilient cross-platform systems that prioritize performance, reliability, and business impact.
