Description

I am an engineering leader with 8+ years building and scaling distributed teams across EMEA. Shipped AI-enabled internal platforms and high-throughput services used by thousands of operators, including an agentic LLM system with >90% response accuracy, <10s P50 latency, and 3.4% ticket deflection. I have led orgs of 10–20 engineers and drove reliability with SLOs, incident response, and continuous evaluation.

My expertise are building and scaling high-performing engineering teams that deliver measurable outcomes incomplex systems, improving both velocity and engineering excellence through clear architecture, coaching, and operational rigor.

• ● Led hands-on design and implementation of an agentic LLM system for internal operational support.
• ● Owned the system end-to-end: problem framing, retrieval design, agent behavior, evaluation, latency optimization, and rollout.
• ● Operated the agent under production SLOs; improved latency via caching + parallel retrieval/tool execution and failure-aware timeouts.
• ● Co-designed a golden eval set with helpdesk operators; used it to drive iteration on retrieval quality and agent policies.
• ● Additionally led a small group of engineers, providing technical direction while remaining deeply hands-on.
