– Present
Director of Engineering
- Lead five engineers, including a principal engineer as team lead, owning nine products; Raise and Store alone process roughly $250M in annual GMV and generate 99% of company revenue.
- Sustained delivery across all nine products through a company-wide reduction that halved the team, without dropping scope or retiring a product.
- Grew annual GMV 35% while cutting portfolio infrastructure spend roughly 50%, migrating products off legacy VMs onto a shared Kubernetes platform.
- Built an AI-assisted engineering practice, agentic coding tools plus automated CI/CD and operations, that lets five engineers cover nine products; ship AI-developed products behind rigorous testing and security auditing.
- Own product roadmap jointly with Product and Design; report strategy, risk, and results to the executive team and board.
- Shipped customer-facing AI in Raise and Store plus internal automation across sales, raising release frequency and cutting production incidents.
Senior Engineering Manager
- Took over Raise and Store after a Director's departure, assuming the company's two highest-revenue products; promoted to Director six months later.
- Replatformed Store from legacy PHP and Magento onto React and MedusaJS on Kubernetes, cutting over with minimal planned downtime.
- Cut platform cost roughly $5,000 per month through that migration, moving the second-to-last product onto shared Kubernetes.
Engineering Manager
- Owned a portfolio of legacy applications spanning .NET, end-of-life PHP, and AWS Lambda with MongoDB.
- Authored the rewrite and migration strategy for each and led their move onto Kubernetes, retiring technical debt without taking products out of production.
- Moved from individual contributor to people leader, establishing delivery cadence and engineering practices.
Principal Engineer
- Hired as a senior IC to assess and set technical direction for Snap!'s legacy portfolio.
- Defined the architecture and migration strategy later executed as Engineering Manager and Director; moved into leadership within five months.
