I start everything by asking: "Is this the right thing to do?" before moving on to "How do we do this right?"Empathetic, data driven and battle hardened engineering leader that doesn’t subscribe to “magical thinking”; let’s find the evidence! I cut through the cruft and focus on solving root causes. I can manage, lead and code.Career highlights:- Achieved 6x reduction in downtime at a FinTech- Improve feature release cadence by over 2x while utilising existing resources through coaching, mentorship and adopting better engineering discipline (TDD, pair programming, architectural refactoring & introducing Elm)- Manage engineering department budget of US$1.2M annually- Expertise in applying AI judiciously in problem domains where they make sense (dodge the hype train!)
