I architect Cloud Native Solutions with an emphasis on DevOps and CI/CD for customers of all sizes. I've defined Enterprise Architectures for greenfield IIOT, Transportation, and Logistics applications, and guided projects through their Digital Transformation to the AWS Cloud.On every project, I work closely and collaboratively with stakeholders so they are well-enough informed to make wise decisions about the Architecture, the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), applying Agile practices, and Technical Choices. I'm an excellent communicator, and love to explain complex technical concepts to all audiences.I mentor early career developers with leadership potential, helping them build the skills they need to be Catalyte's next generation of team- and tech- leads. This is by far the most rewarding part of my role at Catalyte!
