What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, with opportunities for growth and impactful projects.

As an Engineering Leader with over 8 years of experience, I specialize in designing, building, and deploying scalable software solutions. My journey has been marked by a proven track record of managing diverse engineering teams and delivering impactful AI-driven and full stack solutions. I thrive in environments where I can translate complex business requirements into technical goals, ensuring that my teams not only meet but exceed expectations.

Throughout my career, I have led teams in various capacities, from mentoring junior engineers to spearheading the development of innovative architectures. My recent role as Team Lead at PortPro has allowed me to implement automation workflows that significantly reduced overhead and improved reliability. I have a passion for fostering an open engineering culture that encourages idea sharing and constructive critique, which I believe is essential for team growth and success.
