What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead engineering teams in a SAFe/Agile environment, modernize platforms and data pipelines, and deliver scalable product outcomes—on time—with measurable quality, cost, and velocity improvements.

I’m an Engineering Director with 18+ years of end-to-end software product delivery experience, focused on agile transformation, cross-functional leadership, and measurable outcomes. I’ve managed 30+ member global engineering teams, led 3+ Agile Release Trains (ARTs), and delivered 95%+ on-time project completion across quarterly PI cycles.

I translate complex business needs into scalable technical solutions across commercial real estate, payments, Renters Insurance, and Tenant Screening. Through a data-driven engineering culture and automation, I’ve driven a 35% reduction in post-release defects, a 25% decrease in product backlog, and 15–20% annual cost savings while improving release velocity and delivery predictability.
