👷 / 🤵
As a scrappy founding team member, I have built products from the ground up and prioritized critical objectives to ensure efficient delivery in lock-step with my partners.
As an executive responsible for cybersecurity, compliance, and technology spend, I have accelerated product velocity while meeting compliance standards, mitigating risks, and dropping costs.
I've had both the privilege and opportunity to:
- Work on B2C, B2B, SaaS and 2-sided Marketplaces.
- Serve High Volume Traffic (25k hits-per-second) and Low Volume but High Value Transactions (up to over $100k per-purchase).
- Build automated, resilient and scalable systems in datacenter, cloud, and hybrid environments.
I've built and fostered the following parts of a healthy engineering culture:
- Tight, collaborative relationships with product, operations and marketing. Successful initiatives almost always involve our partners.
- A solid technical vision. A comprehensive, long term roadmap of technology ideals that are achievable in lock step with the business roadmap.
- A staffing plan, org structure and leveling system that provides all staff with incentive to contribute and grow.
- Management and governance structures to protect the business from cybersecurity, fraud or compliance issues.
