I build systems that stand the test of pressure.

From U.S. Army Special Forces missions to global fintech, I’ve learned that clear decisions and ownership—not slogans—are what turn complexity into durable results.

Focus Areas

What I Bring to the Table

I've spent a decade leading engineering teams across regulated fintech, global SaaS, and Fortune 100 ecosystems. The problems change—fraud, technical debt, enterprise governance—but the pattern is consistent: build the foundation, grow the people, and let the system do the work. These are the three areas where I create the most leverage.

Regulated Platform Leadership

Engineering at scale where compliance and uptime are the operating constraints.

Organizational Design

Cross-functional teams built for autonomy, clarity, and sustained delivery.

Strategic Technical Judgment

Knowing when to stop shipping and when architecture is the business problem.

Track Record

What sets me apart.

A decade of leading engineering teams where the consequences are real—regulated transactions, global platforms, and organizations that needed structural change, not just faster shipping.

Regulated by default

PCI DSS, SOC 2, GDPR, ISO 27001—I’ve delivered under all of them. Compliance isn’t something I bolt on. It’s how I build.

Let’s talk about your platform challenge.

If your organization is navigating scale, regulatory complexity, or the shift from reactive delivery to resilient platform engineering, I’d welcome the conversation.
