## About

Every enterprise storage team faces the same brutal trade\-off: ship fast, or ship compliant\. Most pick one — and pay for it at GA\. I spent 14\+ years at Dell proving you don't have to choose\. When security is bolted on late, audits stall releases, defects surface after launch, and "STIG hardening" becomes the phrase everyone dreads in sprint planning\. In defense\-grade environments, that's lost certifications and lost contracts\. My answer: make compliance an architecture property, not a late\-stage checklist\. Across Dell's storage stack — Embedded NAS \(VMAX\), PowerMax File, VxRail, VCF on VxRail, and Dell Private Cloud — I turned that into shipped results: • Led a security team of 4–10 engineers delivering 300\+ DISA STIG vulnerability rules across 10\+ major releases • Architected the CI/CD pipeline that built and signed STIG deliverables — GAs 2 weeks ahead of milestone, 50% more defects caught pre\-launch • Designed system\-management middleware that became shared IP across Dell's storage line — 10x faster than its predecessor • Championed an AI\-first SDLC \(SDD/TDD/BDD\) as AI Scrum Master and Release Orchestrator • Acted as an AI force multiplier — ran weekly AI enablement sessions that kept delivery Team's velocity steady as team sizes contracted\. • Served as my org's primary technical facilitator — driving architectural decisions across US, China, and India teams, with data\-driven dashboards bridging engineering execution and management visibility I work best as a hands\-on Principal IC: 80% architecture and deep technical work, 20% mentoring engineers through complex execution\. Credentials & core expertise: Security Architecture \(STIG · Zero Trust Dell Proven Professional · NIST\) \| Cloud & Storage Infrastructure \(SAN · NAS · vSAN/HCI\) \| AI Enablement \(Microsoft AI\-900 · GenAI Engineering\) \| Registered Scrum Master™ & Product Owner™ Currently exploring Principal / Senior Staff opportunities in enterprise storage, security architecture, and AI infrastructure\. 📩 If your platform needs to be fast, secure, and audit\-ready — without trading one for the other — DM me here on LinkedIn\. Five product organizations, three continents of teams, one employer — I've ramped from zero on a new stack every 2\-4 years\.
