I'm an accomplished senior engineering leader with over 20 years of progressive experience in web development, SaaS engineering, and management. My expertise lies in front-end technology, web performance optimization, and building strategic plans for continued organizational growth and development.I'm known for building and leading diverse, high-performing engineering teams in fast-paced high-growth tech companies and for fostering a culture of excellence and innovation. Most recently I played a key role in defining and successfully executing an organizational growth strategy and built an Engineering org from 16 to 100+ people in under 18 months with an attrition rate of less than 7%. I've managed engineering teams of various sizes and disciplines, ranging from leading small specialized groups to overseeing multidisciplinary teams on large-scale projects. To ensure their success, I focus on three key areas: clear communication, professional development, and fostering a collaborative environment.Over the course of my career, I've established a track record in managing large-scale projects, introducing and optimizing processes, and ensuring software quality and seamless customer experiences. Notably, I successfully drove a 9-month project in 2020 to transition the front ends of two of the company's primary properties away from a PHP+SSR React stack to a GatsbyJS+React stack to generate static pages. This improved scalability, maintainability, web performance, and SEO.I naturally empathize with people and my communication is authentic and positive. I work well in group situations as well as one-on-one, am patient and relaxed, and can understand many different sides of an issue. I'm driven to help others, including company management, colleagues, direct reports, and customers. My communication style is complemented by a strong work ethic and consistent attention to detail.
