Senior Leader of a global software product organization with strong technical, business and team management skills. Oversees a diverse team of global talent and manages multi-million dollar business annually. Responsible for strategic vision, product growth and software engineering execution. Experience implementing Continuous Improvement, Quality Engineering and Data Science. Conversant in several mobile, web and enterprise technologies including Java, Swift, React, .NET Core, SQL and Azure/AWS cloud infrastructure. I love a challenge - and it’s even better working on a challenging problem with a group of amazing talent. My entire career is built around this passion. I started as a Software Engineer working on a mix of enterprise software products and interactive consumer facing apps, but quickly advanced with my strategic thinking, leadership and business management skills. During the course of my leadership I have grown the business by 200% and instituted Continuous Improvement practices, Quality Engineering, and Data Science. I am proud to have launched and supported several software products each touching the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. I learned the value of hard work from my father who during most of his childhood worked as a migrant cotton and fruit picker. He worked to the bone and eventually became a successful physician. Every day I try to emulate his great example.
