So the problem is not so much to see what nobody has yet seen, as to think what nobody has yet thought concerning that which everybody sees.

Arthur Schopenhauer

I’m experienced in creating enterprise products from inception to market.

I’ve built small teams and big teams.

I’ve been involved in every phase of the product lifecycle, from product strategy, design, program management, software development, devops and customer success.

Building

It’s what drives me.
Building up people and building products.

  • Developer Studio from Fiserv is a developer portal built by Fiserv to bring their financial technology products onto one platform. Within Developer Studio, you can discover APIs, build integrations and test them before launching to market.

  • As VP of Product & Engineering, I drive product management, engineering, program management and design of the product. I am directly responsible for the roadmap, architecture of the system, reviewing designs and working directly with our customers. (I even manage to checkin code sometimes!). I lead the team to build a fit for purpose developer portal in nine months that has been recognized by The Webbys, The DevPortal Awards and The Devies for its innovative designs and functionality.

What I’ve built

  • IBM OpenBanking Platform is a software-as-a-service suite built on certain predefined industry standards that financial institutions can use to help accelerate their core-to-cloud journey. This solution is built on Kubernetes and guided by Banking Industry Architecture Network (BIAN), Information FrameWork (IFW), and other open banking standards.

  • As the Head of Engineering, I led a global development team to build the first OpenBanking product for the company. I successfully launched the product jointly with a tier one bank in the UK. In addition, led our innovation team in the creation of a fraud detection product to detect shell companies, which was awarded a patent.

  • IBM Capacity Management Analytics provides IT infrastructure system managers, system administrators, and data center executives with access to the information they need to optimize their IT performance, availability, and scalability.

    This information is used for cost effective analysis of service objectives, usage and resource utilization, system tuning, accounting, and cost recovery. Using the measurement and management of available and planned capacity, IT can move quickly from insight to action to improve services for the business.

  • As the Chief Architect & co-founder, I led a multidisciplinary global team of engineers, data scientists and SMEs in the creation of a new analytics product. I worked with sales and customers directly ensuring successful additions to the roadmap and deployments of the product. It was both commercially successful and technically garnering an Outstanding Technical Achievement Award, Customer Excellence Award and a Gartner recommendation.
