Hands-on technology leader architecting cloud-native platforms and high-scale systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a hands-on technology leader and systems thinker with 23+ years designing distributed, cloud-native platforms across cybersecurity, logistics, and IoT. I specialize in architecting resilient systems that support millions of devices and millions of requests per minute while meeting strict uptime and SLO targets.
My career highlights include architecting platforms that support 6M+ devices and 4M RPM with 99.99% availability, modernizing legacy systems to cut latency by 40%, and leading and mentoring engineering organisations of 50+ engineers to measurable productivity gains. I drive transformation through pragmatic adoption of microservices, event-driven architectures, DevSecOps, and emerging AI and graph technologies.
I hold architecture and cloud certifications, publish technical articles, and have a track record of delivering high-throughput APIs and cloud-native platforms (Azure/AWS/Kubernetes). I seek roles where I can shape platform strategy, mentor engineering teams, and deliver scalable, secure solutions that materially impact business outcomes.
