A leader who thinks in systems,
operates with conviction,
and leads with humanity.

I don't just manage engineering — I build the organizational muscle that lets technology compound. Every system I've designed, every team I've built, reflects a belief: that scale without soul is fragile, and speed without strategy is noise.

Strategic Depth

Sees three moves ahead. Connects platform architecture to business outcomes, aligning engineering investment with organizational trajectory.

Analytical Precision

Data-driven in decision-making. Operates with rigor — measuring what matters, questioning assumptions, and course-correcting with discipline.

Humane Leadership

Builds trust before building systems. Creates environments where engineers do their best work — through psychological safety, mentorship, and genuine care.

Deep Ownership

No delegation of accountability. Takes end-to-end responsibility from vision to production — and holds the line when it matters most.

Scale with Speed

Built and scaled platforms serving 50+ deployments globally. Designed CI/CD frameworks that cut deployment cycles by 60%. Operates at enterprise velocity without sacrificing quality.

Accuracy Under Pressure

99.9% uptime across mission-critical platforms. Zero post-release defects on foundational systems. Builds quality into culture, not just process.

Accountability as Practice

Owns the outcome, not just the activity. Champions blameless culture while maintaining sharp personal accountability. The buck stops here — always.

The person behind
the engineering.

I'm an ISB-Certified Chief Technology Officer and engineering leader with 20+ years building systems and organizations at scale. My career spans embedded systems, telecom, mobile platforms, enterprise cloud, and healthcare technology — always at the intersection of deep technical complexity and organizational impact.

Currently at Oracle Health, I lead cloud platform modernization for a $2B+ product portfolio across 50+ global deployments with 550+ engineers. But my identity isn't tied to one industry. Wherever I go, I build the same thing: engineering organizations that are fast, precise, accountable, and deeply human.

I hold dual executive certifications from ISB — CTO Programme and Leadership with AI — equipping me with both the strategic architecture and the human-centered frameworks modern technology organizations demand.

Outside work, I write about engineering leadership, AI governance, and the culture of excellence. I believe the best engineering leaders are those who make themselves invisible — building teams so strong that the system runs without them.
