Principal Software Architect | Cloud & Distributed Systems | AWS · Kubernetes · Event-Driven Architectures

I design, evolve, and lead scalable cloud-native platforms, focusing on architectural decisions that balance technical excellence and business impact.

I am a Principal Software Architect with over 15 years of experience building and leading distributed systems in enterprise environments.

My work sits at the intersection of:

• Software Architecture
• Cloud Platforms
• DevOps & Platform Engineering
• Technical Leadership

I support multiple teams and domains by defining architectural standards, guiding technical decisions, mentoring engineers, and designing platforms that scale reliably.

• Architecture is about decisions, not diagrams
• Scalability, resilience, and operability come first
• Cloud is a product, not just infrastructure
• Standards enable autonomy and consistency
• Technology must serve business outcomes
