Engineering Manager | Platform & Security | Uber | EM + Staff IC experience

About

15+ years building platform and security systems at scale. I’ve worked across both Engineering Manager and senior IC roles - at Uber, often contributing to the same problem from both leadership and hands-on technical angles. I’m comfortable operating in ambiguity: sometimes the challenge is aligning teams and driving execution, and sometimes it’s designing the architecture and building the system itself. Background spans enterprise security, SaaS security posture management (SSPM), distributed systems, platform engineering, and GenAI-driven automation.
