I'm an Engineering Manager and Backend Architect with 11+ years of experience building and leading high-performing engineering teams to deliver scalable SaaS and AI-driven products. I've spent my career combining hands-on technical depth in Python and TypeScript with strategic product thinking and team leadership. At Aptean, I lead engineering teams on enterprise demand planning systems, owning both technical architecture and product strategy. Previously at Logility, I drove the architectural vision for systems that improved performance to support 20x larger enterprise clients. Early in my career, I served as one of the first engineers at Garvis, contributing to the product that led to successful acquisition by Logility, and co-founded Sharxi, a taxi-sharing service where I owned full system design and team leadership. I'm passionate about solving complex technical problems, mentoring engineering talent, and launching products that create real impact.
How I can help
Scale engineering teams and architecture
I guide engineering leaders and individual contributors on building scalable systems, defining technical roadmaps, and making architectural decisions that support enterprise-grade products—drawing from 11+ years leading teams at Aptean, Logility, and earlier ventures.
Lead backend and full-stack design
I architect distributed systems, design Python and TypeScript backends, and mentor teams through system design reviews—proven at Logility, Garvis, and Starpoint Solutions across SaaS and AI-driven products.
Drive product strategy from engineering
I bridge engineering and business by translating product requirements into scalable solutions and collaborating with stakeholders on roadmaps—learned by launching Abracadabra, leading Sharxi as tech co-founder, and managing demand planning systems.
Mentor engineers and build high-performing teams
I develop engineering talent through hands-on mentorship, design reviews, and fostering engineering excellence—core to my role at Aptean and every team I've built or joined.
