Inspirational leadership and creating cultures where engineering teams thrive and innovate are a few of the fundamental values I hold dear. I believe strongly that ownership, responsibility and accountability must live and thrive at the grass roots level of the organization. I in turn thrive on challenge, building winning teams, and developing leaders. Deep experience in technology due diligence, Engineering team effectiveness, Leadership development and coaching, Engineering metrics and process building, international team expansion, building effective teams post M&A, secure development practices, identity and access management, as well as cloud security. Proven expertise in building scalable and highly available cloud solutions deployed world-wide, excellence in planning and operating very large cloud infrastructure, SaaS architecture and design, Java web development, multi-platform international software development, big data, and vast experience in Agile software lifecycle development methodologies are a few of my skills. I’ve led projects to deliver big data solutions in the AWS cloud, Identity and access management, mobile development and deployment, and highly scalable cloud driven applications.
