“Early-stage venture/accelerator operator and co-founder (Decade Ventures) with a systems-driven approach to high-volume founder sourcing and pipeline management. Built non-obvious dealflow channels via international trade missions and embassy networks (Canada, Israel, Netherlands, Singapore, Australia) while running a corporate accelerator at Spring (UK water-sector innovation center). Strong in founder discovery, evidence-based evaluation, and creating standardized partner updates that reduce decision friction.”

“Engineering leader who modernized infrastructure by migrating a ~100-server co-location setup to AWS/GCP with IaC, auto-scaling, and fault-tolerant design, reducing hardware upgrade burden. Also led a key analytics architecture shift from MySQL to ClickHouse to enable highly granular ad revenue attribution and profitability insights, while scaling the dev org from 2–3 to ~12 with stronger CI/testing and review processes.”

“Product/LiveOps leader who applies free-to-play mechanics to live consumer products; led monetization and engagement for Pavo (video-based Gen Z dating app on iOS/Android), addressing weak D7 retention and low free-to-paid conversion. Implemented progression, nudges, soft paywalls, experimentation, and real-time moderation, driving 3.2x DAU and ~60% lift in early engagement while improving conversion without harming retention.”

Executive Technology & Operations Leader (CTO/COO) specializing in scaling SaaS and enterprise software

Denver, Colorado29y exp

“Operations leader and advisor (former COO at College Partnership; also worked with Founders Advisors) who rebuilds and scales early-stage operations using Lean Startup experimentation and KPI-driven execution.

“Entrepreneur and turnaround operator who recently sold a patented mobile + connected TV (CTV) technology startup. Took the product from concept and use-case definition through market testing, product planning, and GTM traction, ultimately converting a prospective client presentation to a European regional digital media company into an acquisition; also advises on turnarounds including stalled VC investments.”

“Cloud/distributed-systems engineer who has shipped real-time, offline-capable ledger/expense infrastructure and solved tricky cross-layer production bugs (carrier handoff retries causing duplicate writes) using packet captures and device logs. Also built modular Python ETL/catalog pipelines for e-commerce with config-toggled plugins for customer-specific pricing/SKU rules, and iterated product changes directly with on-site fulfillment operators using feature flags.”

“Built and launched his own free-to-play mobile trivia games (Unity/Xcode/Android Studio), monetizing through IAPs and multiple ad networks (AppLovin/Chartboost/AdMob). Combines hands-on implementation with growth and analytics rigor—Facebook Ads + ASO, and daily tracking of retention, crashes, conversion, and LTV:CAC—plus a clear approach to A/B testing and live events tooling.”
