I lead engineering organizations by making work visible and reshaping the systems around teams, so that delivery problems become solvable rather than chronic. With over 20 years across interfaces, APIs, and platforms, I've worked in environments where organizational complexity makes flow genuinely hard: regulated industries, distributed teams, layered architectures. I bring DevOps principles and organizational thinking into places where they're most needed and least established.
