What I'm looking for

I seek leadership roles where I can scale engineering teams and platforms, drive product-led growth, implement robust delivery practices, and mentor engineers in a collaborative, experimentation-focused environment.

I am a seasoned technology leader with a track record of building high-performing engineering teams and delivering scalable platforms across startups and enterprise environments.

As CTO and Engineering Manager, I have led end-to-end development and platform architecture using Node.js, GoLang, Kotlin, React, Next.js, Docker, Kubernetes, and AWS/GCP, driving product launches and international expansions.

I prioritize engineering excellence through testing suites, CI/CD, observability (Grafana, Kibana, New Relic), and modern architectures (hexagonal, microservices, serverless), while fostering coaching, feedback, and career growth for teams.

I seek to solve complex technical and product challenges, establish reliable delivery practices, and scale teams and platforms that enable rapid experimentation and sustainable business growth.
