About Me
Technology executive with 20+ years of experience leading software engineering, enterprise delivery, and digital transformation across global organizations. At Mobven, I operate at group level, owning end-to-end delivery governance for enterprise digital platform programs, with direct responsibility for project P&L, pre-sales leadership, and client-facing delivery outcomes.
Previously, I served as CTO of a US-based fintech marketplace, where I built and scaled the platform from concept to production while leading distributed teams in regulated environments. I have also led large-scale enterprise programs at global organizations such as Yum! Brands, managing $1M budgets and 30+ person vendor ecosystems.
My focus is operating at the intersection of technology, delivery, and business. I combine startup-level execution speed with enterprise-grade governance, aligning AI, cloud, and modern platform architectures with measurable commercial and operational outcomes.
