As a Software Architect, I drive AI-first software development across multiple engineering squads by aligning AI strategies with business goals. I’ve led Agile transformations to improve delivery efficiency and foster collaboration. My responsibilities include guiding AI/ML and automation initiatives, designing scalable system architectures, selecting modern tech stacks, and making strategic decisions on software design and deployment. Notable achievements include architecting an AI-powered chatbot for HR and benefits support, building an OCR claims processing system using Azure AI, and deploying an internal LLM solution to enhance employee productivity. I also introduced AI coding assistants to streamline development workflows and elevate code quality.
Tech Lead at Darwin, where I focused on the development of the next generation of a benefits management platform (HRM). This platform is designed to streamline and improve the way organizations manage employee benefits and reimbursements. I led a cross-functional team of 10 full-stack engineers and QAs, assigned tasks, and provided hands-on support to ensure timely and high-quality delivery. I mentored team members on engineering best practices, collaborated with product stakeholders on requirements and technical approaches, and conducted regular performance reviews. I was accountable for the architecture, design, and implementation of the reimbursement module. Key accomplishments include contributing to the internal Grow framework for career progression, improving code quality through backend/frontend linter tools, and enhancing developer productivity by introducing AI-assisted tools such as GitHub Copilot and Visual Studio IntelliCode.
As the leader of a team of 12 Otoleapers, I have designed and implemented a new generation of automotive dealer management solutions, known as Otoleap. My role involves translating product and design requirements into actionable engineering tasks, and continuously improving the architecture of the system to make it more robust, distributed, and global in nature. I am also responsible for overseeing the devops responsibilities of the team.
I have supported and developed a variety of solutions - including integrations, web applications, angular applications, business intelligence tools, and office applications - to automate internal business processes using Microsoft Project Server and Microsoft SharePoint platforms.
I have been responsible for managing communication and coordination between the product, design, and in-house and outsourced engineering teams. In this capacity, I have overseen the code quality, website uptime (Beeline), usage of third-party services, and vendor partnerships. My efforts have been instrumental in ensuring that our team is able to deliver high-quality products and services to our customers.
As a core developer for the Softline MS Dynamics team, I have designed and implemented a range of modules and components. In addition to my technical contributions, I have also provided guidance and mentorship to my fellow engineers on the team.
