With over 16+ years of experience in software development, I’ve evolved from a proficient Software Engineer into an accomplished Engineering Manager. My journey has encompassed a wide array of projects and industries, from startups to oil and gas companies, educational institutions, and research labs.
As a self-driven, quick learner, and top-notch coder, I firmly believe in the importance of knowledge sharing and consistently promote clear, high-quality coding, and best practices. My transition to the Engineering Manager role reflects my passion for talent development, driving impactful projects, and contributing to organizational success at the intersection of technology and engineering.
I’ve overseen a broad portfolio, including products like Healthcare Experience Cloud, Automated Notifications, and Agent Flows, along with the QA team. I’ve had the privilege of leading and mentoring a team of 10+ Individual Contributors, ranging from entry-level professionals to team leads.
