About

I'm a technical delivery leader with 5+ years driving cross-functional programs at the intersection of engineering, design, and client delivery. Currently lead a 20+ member frontend engineering and design organization at Simplotel, where I've rebuilt how we deliver web solutions at scale. WHAT I'VE DELIVERED: Reduced delivery cycles by 60%, from 5 days to 2 days, by redefining workflow stages, team handoffs, and automated checkpoints across functions Cut quality-control turnaround by 70% with n8n-driven validation pipelines that compressed issue resolution from 3-4 days to 1 day and removed a recurring delivery bottleneck Standardized delivery governance across 150+ active properties through reusable component libraries, visual QA frameworks, and consistent process, reducing execution variance across distributed teams Re-architected delivery around AI-assisted pipelines, introducing AI-driven site generation and automated QC to replace manual production steps WHAT I DO: → Program Delivery: Own end-to-end execution across concurrent programs, including scope, timelines, dependencies, and quality bar for a global enterprise portfolio → Process Definition & Automation: Design scalable workflows and automate recurring delivery, validation, and reporting activities → Cross-Functional Leadership: Align engineering, design, and business stakeholders on priorities, resourcing, and deliverables → Risk & Escalation Management: Primary technical liaison for enterprise clients, handling scope negotiation, risk communication, and escalation ownership TOOLS & TECHNICAL FOUNDATION: Delivery: JIRA, Confluence, Agile/Scrum, Sprint Planning, Visual QA Frameworks Automation: n8n, AI-assisted build pipelines (Claude API), Node.js, Git Technical: JavaScript (ES6+), HTML5, CSS3, Design Systems, Web Accessibility (WCAG, ARIA) WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR: Technical Program Management and delivery leadership roles where I can apply program execution, process design, and automation to ship complex cross-functional work at scale. Open to conversations about Technical Program Management, Program Management, and Delivery Management roles.
