I have a track record of leading fast-moving product and business intelligence development projects in a variety of companies and contexts. My balance of organization, communication and hands-on technical skills inevitably makes me a go-to guy with a broad understanding of all parts of a system and the ability to get things done. My duties typically range from gathering business requirements and mining data for insights, to managing staffing and workflows, to rolling up my sleeves and writing code. I am adept at making the trade-off decisions needed to get things done: when to deliver quick wins and when to invest in refactoring, process improvement, and automation; when to blue-sky and brainstorm and when to light fires and ruthlessly focus; when to double down on what’s working and when to cut bait on what’s not.I prefer working in smaller entrepreneurial organizations with cross-functional teams and a collaborative culture rather than strict hierarchies and silos. I thrive when everyone is encouraged to push their comfort zones, learn new things, and chip in wherever they're needed regardless of job title.
