What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead customer-critical incident communications and operational governance in a cloud environment—pairing clear playbooks, automation, and executive visibility to improve SLA, TTR, and CSAT.

I’m a Senior manager with 23+ years of global experience in cloud infrastructure, incident management, and technical operations. At Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), I direct 24/7 global incident communications operations across APAC, EMEA, and US time zones, keeping SLA and IRD compliance consistent across shifts.

My work is measurable: I built and scaled 24/7 global incident communications functions at Oracle—cutting Sev1 notify time from 57 minutes to 9 minutes, improving average TTR by 35%, and strengthening SLA compliance. I’m equally comfortable presenting dashboards to VP-level leadership and partnering with engineers to rewrite runbooks and operational playbooks for major incident execution.

I also drive outcomes through structured stakeholder communication loops, OKR-based performance reviews, and process automation that reduces repeat incidents and executive escalations. Earlier roles strengthened my foundation—building real-time dashboards, leading APAC major incident teams, and managing global escalation queues for SuccessFactors cloud products with improved first-contact resolution and reduced queue aging.
