Led a cross-functional engineering team delivering integration features for the Atlassian Rovo AI ecosystem, coordinating across Java, TypeScript, and Kotlin codebases within a fast-paced product environment. Owned sprint planning, backlog prioritization, and capacity management for a team working directly with US-based stakeholders, maintaining consistent on-time delivery across integration milestones. Drove a structured POC evaluation of OCR solutions (Apache Tika, Tesseract) defining assessment criteria across accuracy, integration complexity, and performance to support a critical Rovo product decision. Leveraged AI-assisted capabilities via GitHub Copilot in IntelliJ IDEA to accelerate code review, change analysis, and unit test generation across the team. Mentored junior and mid-level engineers through pair programming and structured feedback cycles, increasing team autonomy over delivery.

Defined architecture and supervised implementation of technological solutions (Java, JavaScript, SQL), balancing team capabilities with delivery timelines. Coached development teams on REST integration best practices, improving cross-service reliability and reducing integration defects.

Delivered backend (Java) and frontend (React/TypeScript) solutions within microservices architectures for enterprise clients, contributing across the full stack in distributed, cloud-ready environments. Designed asynchronous messaging integrations between distributed services using event-driven patterns, improving system resilience and fault tolerance. Mentored peers on architectural patterns, supporting technical growth within the team.

Led multiple engineering teams concurrently as an independent consultant, defining scope, roadmaps, and development workflows across ongoing and greenfield projects. Structured career growth paths and mentoring programs aligned with organizational objectives, strengthening team retention and technical depth. Owned technical decision-making across cross-team dependencies, resolving blockers and maintaining delivery continuity across concurrent engagements. Integrated CodeRabbit into PR review workflows, automating code quality analysis and reducing review cycle time across active projects.

Led multiple delivery squads (8 to 15 engineers) across API development, frontend, and data integration workstreams, governing SOA-based architectures for mobile banking solutions with a focus on performance, resilience, and security. Diagnosed a multi-stakeholder delivery breakdown (client, project managers, and engineering team) and proposed a cross-functional delivery framework inspired by SAFe, reducing misalignment across workstreams and restoring client confidence within two sprints. Introduced parallel delivery streamlines across sales, security, UX, and engineering, shifting the team from sequential to concurrent delivery and increasing visible progress for executive stakeholders. Facilitated architecture and design sessions using domain-driven approaches, defining clear service boundaries and enabling teams to move from reactive execution to proactive technical ownership.

Developed cloud-ready APIs using Node.js (JavaScript/TypeScript), supporting scalable application architectures. Collaborated with product and business teams to ensure technical solutions met evolving requirements.

Built and led a stable engineering team (5 to 10 developers) over 6+ years, owning the full talent lifecycle including hiring, onboarding, mentoring, and performance management. Architected and delivered SaaS products for the higher education sector, defining technical roadmaps and aligning delivery with institutional contracts and evolving business requirements. Led a vendor-agnostic platform modernization from Oracle and a proprietary application server to PostgreSQL and Wildfly, executing an 8-month phased migration with a 99% success rate and zero downtime for end users. Established Agile practices and CI/CD pipelines from the ground up, improving team velocity and deployment frequency across multiple product lines. Maintained direct relationships with institutional stakeholders, translating technical progress into business language for non-technical decision makers.

Designed service integrations (Java, JavaScript, Oracle) ensuring reliable inter-system communication.

Developed and maintained enterprise Java applications with Oracle persistence, analyzing and implementing functional requirements.

Developed cloud-native web applications (Java, JavaScript, MySQL) deployed on AWS within an Agile/Scrum environment.
