Leading Strategic Enterprise Accounts in their Google Cloud ☁ Transformation Journey while navigating and solving very difficult undefined complex problems and delivering new products and solutions built from the ground up with the global product teams.In this executive level role, I like to think of it as serving as a Chief Technology Officer (CTO) for one of GCP's strategic customers. I ensure the team continues progress to drive measurable customer outcomes, transformation, and acceleration of adoption while leveraging the Google Cloud Platform. I work collaboratively with both my customer and the rest of the google team to design cloud architectures that are scalable, highly performant and highly resilient, then define an adoption plan, and drive that plan through execution and ensure the critical workloads are running on GCP in the best way possible.I also share cloud architecture best practices and design reference architectures while providing prescriptive guidance around application and systems design to clients and feed back customer input to product engineering teams to ensure that GCP's products are meeting the needs of our customers, both now and in the future. (ex: TPU, GPU, Database, Kubernetes.)Awards granted: Allstar Award, Accelerate Award and the prestigious Google Stratosphere Award for spearheading a joint collaboration cross functions internally and externally for the development of a new engineered google server product offering that required navigating thru ambiguity and execution at scale.
