What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that foster innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my expertise in program management to drive impactful projects.

I am a results-driven Technical Program Manager with a proven ability to lead cross-functional engineering teams and drive large-scale product development. My experience spans managing ODM/OEM supply chains, ensuring high-quality and cost-effective solutions. I have successfully directed large-scale programs in line card integration and optical transceivers, building a Project Management Office (PMO) from the ground up with eight direct reports.

Throughout my career, I have established data-driven processes and lean manufacturing initiatives that enhance efficiency and reduce costs. My extensive experience in global supply chain and vendor management has allowed me to work with major hyperscalers and telecoms, including Meta, Google, and AWS. I pride myself on my expertise in risk and quality management, ensuring operational excellence in hardware and integration projects.
