What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead and mentor remote engineering teams, improve CI/CD and processes, contribute technically, and work with cross-functional stakeholders to deliver scalable, compliant systems.

I am an engineering manager with hands-on software development roots, focused on delivering reliable, compliant systems and enabling teams to ship high-quality software. I lead remote, cross-functional teams and emphasize ownership, mentorship and operational excellence.

At 77Diamonds I drove strategic business growth by adapting systems for new showrooms, designed sophisticated GitHub Actions for CI/CD, and implemented customized Jira workflows and automations to standardize processes. I maintain technical proficiency by contributing 10–20% of my time to development, critical bug fixes and code reviews.

My background includes full-stack .NET development, API integrations, logistics system integrations and large-file upload prototypes. I prioritize team satisfaction, retention and meeting SLA targets while collaborating with product and project managers to plan and execute weekly sprints.
