Description

I'm a systems-oriented engineering leader with over two decades of experience across backend engineering, cloud infrastructure, DevSecOps, and platform engineering. I work at the intersection of systems, processes, and teams, turning complexity into sustainable, measurable results.

I combine deep technical expertise with leadership that spans the whole stack. I've been a Developer, Sysadmin, Architect, CTO, Founder, and Head of Platform. I understand code, infrastructure, and organisational dynamics, and how they influence each other.

I believe that technology should serve people and planet. Sustainable software isn't a constraint, it's a competitive edge. From energy-efficient code to GreenOps practices in cloud and DevSecOps, I apply lifecycle thinking at every layer.
