What I'm looking for

I seek senior technical leadership roles where I can drive cloud-native architectures, product roadmaps, mentor teams, and deliver scalable, secure enterprise solutions.

I am a results-driven Technical Architect with over 15 years of experience leading cross-functional teams to deliver enterprise-scale web applications and digital transformation initiatives.

I architect cloud-native, high-availability solutions (AWS/Azure) and modern tech stacks including .NET Core, Sitecore, React.js, microservices, and CI/CD pipelines, achieving platforms with 99.5%+ uptime and handling 500K+ concurrent users.

I lead product strategy, roadmap planning, and technical governance while mentoring engineering teams (15+ developers), reducing cycle time and production incidents through automation, monitoring, and Agile practices.

I have a strong record delivering mission-critical public sector and commercial products, migrating enterprise apps to Sitecore, and driving cloud migrations and performance optimization to improve reliability and scalability.
