-
• Proven experience designing and evolving large-scale distributed systems and microservice architectures.
-
• Demonstrated ability to own technical domains, making architectural trade-offs and long-term design decisions.
-
• Experience driving cross-domain initiatives, coordinating with multiple teams to deliver cohesive solutions.
-
• Track record of mentoring engineers, leading technical discussions, and influencing outcomes at an organizational level.
-
