What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead cloud platform architecture and engineering teams, solving reliability, scalability, identity, and data challenges while applying AI/ML concepts to cloud operations.

I lead architecture and technical strategy for Octave's Smart Cloud platform, delivering multi-tenant SaaS engineering products across customer and regional deployments.

I've designed event-driven Azure workflows for provisioning, reporting, and hybrid-cloud file operations, including SCIM identity provisioning that reduced onboarding for 2,000+ users from about a week to minutes.

I improve platform reliability and performance through proactive telemetry alerting, production incident support, and data optimization. I re-engineered Estate Usage exports from 57–107 seconds for 1,500 rows to roughly 4–12 seconds for 6,830 rows.

I mentor a 10-engineer team and coordinate architecture and delivery across 30+ engineers. Alongside hands-on Azure, .NET, and SQL Server work, I'm completing an M.Tech in AI and ML focused on predictive autoscaling for Azure Kubernetes Service.
