I am a seasoned software engineering professional with over two decades of technical leadership experience in tech startups and Google. I started my career as a software developer in Fintech for 4 years, then I dove into tech startups where I had the opportunity to create a company, recruit talent, assemble engineering teams, ship award winning software, engage with some amazing technology partners, enterprise customers, and business partners. During the 14-year stint, I assumed various roles (ie. founding engineer, VP of Engineering, EVP of Product Development, and CTO) and took on various responsibilities including product management, project management, expanding offshore development, VC fund-rasing, IT management, and much more. Since 2011, I’ve been an Engineering Manager at Google leading engineering productivity and DevOps teams in Ads, Cloud, and Core.Across each of these opportunities, I’ve assembled high-performing engineering teams to tackle complex problems. Many of them were web applications for large organizations. As a software engineer, I share the same passion for solving problems with elegant and efficient solutions. As a technical lead, I enjoy the technical collaboration among other engineers, designers, & product managers across the SDLC. As an engineering manager, I enjoy building teams, growing individuals, coaching, and align their interests with the business goals to deliver exceptional customer value.
