What I'm looking for

With over 20 years of experience in technical architecture and project management, I have successfully led numerous projects, particularly in the insurance domain. My expertise lies in leveraging technology to enhance asset value and secure investments for growth. I excel in building strong relationships with business stakeholders and leadership teams, ensuring that project governance processes are adhered to while balancing resources, schedules, and scope.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my innovative approach, including being a runner-up in the ACORD Innovation Challenge 2016. My technical proficiency includes managing migrations from legacy systems to modern frameworks, as well as implementing continuous deployment strategies using tools like Kubernetes and Azure DevOps. I am passionate about delivering structured, efficient, and adaptable IT solutions that align with business strategies.
