I am an IT leader with over 12 years of experience combining technical excellence and people-first leadership to drive resilient, cost-efficient infrastructure and scalable software architecture. I hold a degree and postgraduate education, and certifications including CCNA, AWS Certified Solutions Architect, and Dell infrastructure credentials. My career focus is to continue leading engineering teams and progress into executive technology roles within insurtech, fintech, or large corporate environments.
I lead teams of 8–12 engineers, prioritizing clear communication, accountability, and professional development to build autonomous, high-performing groups. I believe honest dialogue and mutual respect form the foundation of sustained team performance, and I cultivate cultures where engineers are empowered to take ownership and innovate safely.
Technically, my core expertise spans network infrastructure, network and software architecture, cloud platforms, and containerized systems. I have delivered measurable outcomes across multiple projects, including a 70% reduction in cloud costs through optimizations and architecture changes, achieving 99% availability for a corporate VoIP service, and designing and deploying a robust high-availability application on Kubernetes. These results reflect a pragmatic approach that balances reliability, performance, and cost.
I excel at aligning technical strategy with business objectives, translating complex infrastructure choices into clear risk/reward trade-offs for stakeholders. I am seeking roles where I can continue scaling engineering teams, influence platform-level decisions, and contribute to executive leadership that drives secure, resilient, and cost-effective technology at scale. Outside of work, I am a committed father, an avid reader, and an enthusiast of road travel.
