## Headline

Engineering Manager, AI @ Palo Alto Networks \| Agentic AI, Data & Software Engineering\| 12\+ Years Data, Software & AI Engineering

## About

I build systems that let AI agents make decisions — not just answer questions\. Over the last 4 years at Palo Alto Networks, I've gone from building enterprise data pipelines to architecting the multi\-agent orchestration platforms that sit on top of them\. Today I lead a team of 4 AI/ML engineers building agent\-to\-agent \(A2A\) systems that translate natural language into SQL, coordinate specialized agents for enterprise telemetry analysis, and cut manual analyst effort by 30%\. What I actually do: → Architect multi\-agent systems \(graph\-based orchestration, A2A execution, context caching\) → Build the data infrastructure underneath them \(Spark, Beam, BigQuery, AWS/GCP\) → Lead and grow engineering teams, from IC to manager Before AI/agents became the job, I spent 8\+ years in data engineering — building ETL pipelines at Cisco, real\-time systems at Cognizant, and trading infrastructure at JP Morgan\. That foundation is why my AI systems don't fall over in production: I've spent a decade learning what breaks at scale\. Always happy to connect with people working on agentic AI, LLM infrastructure, or data platforms — feel free to reach out\.
