Hi, my name is

I've always been drawn to the invisible problems—the ones that only reveal themselves at scale. How do you process a billion data points without infrastructure costs spiraling? How do you double team capacity without sacrificing quality? How do you build systems that adapt to changing needs without complete rewrites?

These are the problems that get me up in the morning.

Career Journey

Intel Corporation (2014-2017): Building the Foundation

I started my career at Intel as a Performance Engineer in the Data Center Group, where I fell in love with systems programming and performance optimization. I spent three years building benchmarking tools, analyzing CPU performance characteristics, and developing internal applications for performance comparison.

The work taught me to think at multiple levels of abstraction—from instruction-level optimization to system architecture to user experience. I built an open-source performance testing suite that's still used across the company today, and received two Intel Division Recognition Awards for my contributions.

Key lesson: The best technical work combines deep expertise with clear communication. Engineers need tools that work, and stakeholders need to understand why it matters.

Olono to InsightSquared to Mediafly (2018-2024): Scaling Through Acquisitions

I joined Olono, a pre-Series A startup, as their first dedicated backend engineer. Within 18 months, we were acquired by InsightSquared. Two years later, InsightSquared was acquired by Mediafly. I rode the journey from 10-person startup to 200+ person organization, progressing from Software Engineer to Director of Engineering.

This trajectory taught me how to build systems and teams that survive rapid growth:

• As a Software Engineer, I built the integration framework that connected our platform to Salesforce, Zendesk, Jira, and other services—contributing to 300% customer growth
• As a Senior/Principal Engineer, I architected ETL systems that increased data processing efficiency by 60%, enabling us to scale to 500% more customers without proportional infrastructure costs
• As an Engineering Manager, I built Mediafly's first nearshore team and created onboarding programs that reduced ramp-up time by 50%
• As a Director of Engineering, I led teams of 10 engineers delivering strategic projects contributing $4M ARR while implementing Agile frameworks that improved delivery predictability by 90%

Key lesson: Scaling isn't just about adding more people. It's about building systems, processes, and culture that amplify everyone's impact.

Delivr.ai (2025-Present): Person-Level Intent, Hands-On

I joined Delivr.ai as Director of Engineering and became CTO in early 2026. Delivr is a deterministic identity resolution and person-level intent platform: instead of telling B2B teams that some company is researching a topic, we tell them who is researching it, resolved to a real person.

This is the most hands-on role I've had since Intel, and the most interesting systems I've worked on:

• A Rust data stack (DataFusion, DuckDB) that replaced Snowflake, Spark, and Airflow, processing billions of behavioral signals a day
• An identity graph with hundreds of millions of person profiles
• An intent API backed by over 1.2 billion person-topic signals, reimported into DynamoDB daily behind an atomic pointer swap
• A development process where AI agents write the first pass and humans own every merge

Key lesson: the fastest infrastructure is the infrastructure you actually measure. Every replacement above started with a query, not an opinion. I write about this work at delivr.ai/engineering.

Side Project: Ouroborai

Ouroborai is my side project exploring AI-powered tools that help non-technical founders create enterprise-grade applications without writing code. Building it keeps me close to the 0-to-1 phase and to what AI-assisted development feels like from the founder's seat.

What I Care About

• Technical Excellence with Business Impact: I believe the best engineering delivers measurable business value. Code quality matters, but what matters more is whether customers can do things they couldn't do before.
• Building Teams That Scale: The most satisfying part of engineering leadership is watching people grow. Engineers I mentored have gone on to lead teams, architect major systems, and start their own companies.
• Making Software Development More Accessible: Whether through better tools, clearer documentation, or AI assistance—I'm passionate about lowering barriers to building great software.
