What I'm looking for
I am an IT Director and security-focused leader with 15+ years delivering infrastructure, cloud, and cybersecurity solutions across hospitality, retail, and AI localization domains. I combine hands-on technical expertise in cloud platforms, IAM, secure SDLC and network security with proven budget and program management experience.
Throughout my career I have led support and security teams, managed multimillion-euro budgets, and run security governance, audits and business continuity programs. I have driven large IT projects including Wi-Fi/IPTV, optical-fiber rollouts and hospitality software deployments while maintaining operational excellence across distributed environments.
I prioritize pragmatic risk management and continuous improvement, mentoring teams, aligning stakeholders and embedding security into delivery. I seek roles where I can strengthen security posture, scale resilient infrastructure and contribute to business continuity and governance.
