What I'm looking for

I seek senior product or engineering leadership roles that align technical strategy with business goals, emphasize agile delivery, team mentorship, and scalable platform growth.

I am an IT management professional with over 20 years' experience delivering software development, applications support and technology consulting in ITIL-oriented organizations. I combine hands-on technical expertise with leadership of distributed development and operations teams to produce scalable, user-centric solutions.

As a product and engineering leader I have owned roadmaps, epics and user stories, led agile teams, and managed full lifecycle delivery for marketplaces, enterprise applications and platform initiatives. My accomplishments include leading large development and support organizations, delivering production releases and integrations, and founding a technology-driven marketplace platform.

I hold a Bachelor of Computer Science from the University of the Philippines Diliman and ITIL v3.0 certification. I seek roles where I can align technical strategy with business goals, mentor teams, and drive reliable, measurable delivery.
