About Alex

I help software teams that are struggling with delivery, unclear structure, or misalignment between product and engineering get back on track and start shipping consistently.

My background combines product ownership and engineering leadership, with a focus on improving how teams work without introducing unnecessary process.

I typically support teams that are:

Missing deadlines or struggling to deliver reliably
Dealing with unclear or overloaded backlogs
Experiencing friction between product and engineering
Growing quickly and losing structure

My approach is practical and hands-on:

Understand how work is currently tracked and delivered
Clarify ownership across the team
Bring structure to backlogs and prioritisation
Improve alignment between product and engineering
Simplify scope and remove blockers

I focus on changes that can be implemented quickly and that make a visible difference to delivery.

I’m available for short-term diagnostics and part-time advisory support.
