I fix engineering orgs.
Director-level engineering leader and consultant. I take on the deliveries, deployments, and teams everyone else is worried about — and bring them home.

Problems I solve
Stalled or at-risk deliveries
A commitment that's behind, technically unready, or about to cost you the relationship — I assemble a focused team and drive it to done.
Release discipline
Teams that haven't shipped on time in years get the criteria, cadence, and structure to start doing it again.
Distributed teams losing cohesion
Engineers spread across geographies and time zones, operating without drift, duplicated effort, or burned-out leads.
Early-stage roadmap clarity
Startups that need to go from concept to confident, fundable execution — fractional CTO support included.
AI adoption that actually sticks
Heavy daily AI user — I help engineering teams and individuals move past novelty use into real workflow gains.
Track record
20+ years leading engineering through deliveries that couldn't slip.
