What I'm looking for

I seek senior presales or architecture roles where I can lead teams, design enterprise data centers, influence vendor strategy, and deliver large-scale infrastructure projects.

I am a results-driven Head of Presales Engineering and Infrastructure Solutions Architect with 14+ years designing and delivering enterprise-scale data center and infrastructure solutions across 60+ countries. I lead technical teams, architect complex hybrid infrastructures, and drive high win rates on large-scale, mission-critical projects.

I combine deep domain expertise in physical data center design — cooling, power systems, and facilities planning — with hands-on technology experience across Dell EMC, HPE, VMware, Cisco, NetApp, and Nutanix to produce clear HLD/LLD documentation and compelling technical proposals.

I build and mentor high-performing presales teams, manage strategic vendor partnerships, and translate technical designs into business value for public and private sector clients, consistently achieving strong proposal win rates and successful large-scale deployments.
