About

Technology Executive with over 18 years of experience scaling engineering organizations and delivering tangible business outcomes. As Custom Solutions Director I currently lead a 194-person technology department (Java, Frontend, PHP, MuleSoft), shaping technology strategy and ensuring the delivery of complex, high-value solutions for enterprise clients. I have built and grown engineering teams from small groups to nearly 200 specialists, consistently improving delivery speed, quality, and system reliability while maintaining strong focus on business goals. I specialize in making clear, long-term technical decisions in complex environments and creating organizations that reliably turn strategy into results. My strength lies in bridging deep technical understanding with business acumen — aligning engineering efforts with revenue growth, operational efficiency, and customer value. Currently, I am exploring opportunities in technology strategy, engineering leadership, platform/product organizations, or advisory roles, where experience, judgment, and responsibility matter as much as technical expertise.
