Vetted Observability Professionals

“Built and deployed a production AI/ML SRE copilot that uses RAG over real-time Splunk signals plus deployment/runbook data to generate grounded incident summaries and next steps, cutting time-to-contact by 30%. Treats the knowledge corpus like a production dataset (quality gates, semantic chunking, metadata enrichment) and runs golden-dataset automated evals to ensure reliability, while partnering closely with ops/support leaders through discovery sessions and metric-driven demos.”

“Technology leader with experience owning enterprise roadmaps and executing large-scale platform standardization during rapid M&A—most notably driving a tech roadmap across a 37-company portfolio at Regent, tackling technical debt and security gaps via unified cloud-native architecture, IAM/logging, CI/CD, and a global SRE model. Previously scaled an Adobe engineering org from 8 to 40+ across four regions, implementing clear org design, KPIs, and an extreme-ownership culture to support 24/7 operations and enterprise needs.”
