About Me

I'm an Engineering Manager with a strong technical background and hands-on experience building, scaling, and stabilizing engineering teams in early-stage startups.

Currently, I lead a distributed engineering team at Vetted Health, where I own delivery processes, technical planning, and cross-functional execution. My role sits at the intersection of engineering, product, and business — translating ambiguous goals into clear technical initiatives while balancing delivery speed with long-term system reliability.

Before formally stepping into management, I served as a Tech Lead and Senior Software Engineer, contributing directly to backend systems, cloud infrastructure, and frontend platforms. I've led initiatives ranging from AI-powered candidate pre-screening and automation workflows to cost-reduction efforts that replaced high-cost vendors with internal platforms.

Technical Foundation

9 years of hands-on experience with React, TypeScript, Node.js, AWS, and distributed systems. I still review PRs, design architectures, and ship code.

Leadership Approach

Building ownership-driven cultures where engineers feel empowered. Focus on hiring, mentoring, and creating environments where teams can do their best work.

Problem Solving

Thrive in ambiguous environments. Whether it's scaling systems to 150k users or reducing costs by 95%, I focus on pragmatic solutions that deliver business value.

Current Focus

Improving delivery predictability, system stability, and operational efficiency. Scaling teams without losing technical quality or engineering culture.

What I'm Looking For

I'm open to Engineering Manager or Technical Leadership roles where I can help teams build reliable products, grow sustainably, and deliver meaningful business impact.
