I have been the technical leader at 3 successful start-ups bringing products to their initial markets, where I was responsible for turning MVP grade platforms to full production ready systems and building key features from the product roadmap, reporting directly in to the CEO, or founders, of the businesses ensuring transparent and clear communication with stakeholders, clients, and customers. I build my teams with the Agile value system where I use an open management style to encourage ownership and respect between team members and ensure my staff understand the drivers and needs of the business including what excellence looks like in each situation. My greatest success in this regard was at Kayenta, where I built a diverse, and multi-disciplined team of junior developers and brought significant improvements to the engineering process in a short time-frame.
