Director-level Engineering & Program Leader specializing in AI product platforms

San Diego, CA25y exp

“Technical Program Manager and one of three internal "founders" of HP’s Hardware-as-a-Service home printer subscription initiative, spanning DTC shipping, simplified setup, ink replenishment, and warranty coverage. Led roadmap definition/execution, scaled delivery rapidly to 15+ scrum teams (including vendors) with SAFe-like coordination and shared engineering standards, and drove key architecture trade-offs (building an interim subscription management service) to accelerate time-to-market by about a year.”

“Gameplay engineer with hands-on experience across Unreal Engine 5 and Unity, owning systems from level streaming/teleportation to motion-matched character movement. Has shipped/implemented multiplayer features including GAS-based replication with prediction/reconciliation and a deterministic lockstep runner using fixed-point math. Strong at diagnosing hard-to-repro physics issues and balancing performance/feel (e.g., mobile voxel A* pathfinding at 60 FPS, Chaos destruction tuned to avoid trapping players).”

“Has experience in several VC-backed companies and is motivated by early-stage company building—especially the fast pace of early engineering and cross-functional "wearing many hats" as a startup grows. Some exposure to investors through prior roles, though has not fundraised directly; familiar with VC and has read about accelerators like Y Combinator.”

Mid-Level Full-Stack Software Engineer specializing in Java/Spring and React with GenAI automation

USA4y exp

“Software engineer (4+ years) with hands-on production GenAI experience: built an AI incident triage assistant that summarizes production logs for on-call engineers and iterated it using real incident metrics (time-to-signal, triage duration). Also shipped a RAG-based customer support knowledge assistant using embeddings + vector retrieval with strong guardrails (relevance thresholds/abstain, sanitization, auditing) and a formal eval loop (500-query gold set) that drove measurable retrieval improvements.”

“Software Design Lead on a NAVAIR-sponsored senior design capstone building an Unreal Engine 5 UAV/LiDAR simulation to support sensor spoofing detection. Reverse-engineered and standardized LiDAR packet formats and integrated the sim with Simulink and an NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano over Ethernet to enable stable real-time SIL/HIL testing, leveraging strong Linux/kernel networking knowledge to debug latency and packet loss.”

“Operations-focused leader with experience spanning client delivery, sales operations, and longer-term customer success initiatives at a reputation analytics firm and at Penta. Known for implementing systems (ClickUp, Salesforce/HubSpot, marketing tech) and rigorous reporting rhythms that improve executive visibility, accountability, and data-driven resource allocation; also supported an acquisition by preparing confidential financial documentation and contracts.”

“Enterprise Architecture leader with insurance domain experience (Farmers Insurance) who drove a multi-phase roadmap to modernize a siloed CRM landscape—migrating from legacy Siebel to Salesforce Financial Services Cloud with Customer 360, MDM, and omnichannel capabilities.
