About Me

Engineering Manager in Pleasanton, California. Husband and father. I build teams that ship.

Experience

I lead engineering teams focused on developer experience, platform tooling, and infrastructure. My work spans CI/CD, governance, and internal tools that help other engineers move faster.

Before management: 20+ years as an IC across corporate, startup, and higher education environments. Ruby, Java, Python, TypeScript. Bare metal to AWS. Certified Scrum Master who favors pragmatism over orthodoxy. Coming from a liberal arts background, I learned iterative design through writing—drafting, editing, and refining until you get it right.

What I'm Looking For

Engineering leadership roles where I can grow teams, ship platform and infrastructure products, and stay hands-on technically. Remote-first preferred—I've led distributed teams successfully for years.
