Director, Integration Systems at Locus Robotics (2021-07 – 2026-09)

• Spearheaded the strategic consolidation and modernization of core platform architecture, migrating and decommissioning legacy ADO.NET and MSMQ systems into a unified platform while assuming full technical ownership to eliminate delivery bottlenecks.
• Architected AI-driven custom shared services and API integrations (Salesforce APEX to PagerDuty) to govern Service Level Objectives (SLOs) and automate on-call incident-response rotations, optimizing customer escalation coverage, reducing resolution latency, and preventing engineering burnout.
• Engineered cloud-based data pipelines to centralize on-premise support logs into a custom reporting engine, establishing near real-time observability and improving integration health monitoring for Customer Support.
• Initiated platform security enhancements by prototyping and integrating Azure KeyVault (via PowerShell) to eliminate clear-text database credentials and securely manage enterprise API tokens.
• Directed customer-facing solution delivery by building repeatable delivery playbooks and golden path environment provisioning.
• Managed European-based support engineers (Spain, Portugal, Netherlands) to deliver 24/7 customer-facing solutions globally.
• Generated AI assisted scripts enabling self-service database cloning templates that accelerated release velocity while simultaneously increasing deployment quality.

Divisional Software Development Manager at CTDI (2016-02 – 2021-07)

• Directed geographically distributed teams across North America to deliver custom, multi-tenant SaaS Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) and supply chain logistics platforms supporting 6 internal and 23 client warehouses for enterprise clients (Cox, Comcast, Dell, Verifone).
• Modernized enterprise data warehousing, ETL data-movement pipelines, and real-time operational reporting using Oracle GoldenGate and Tableau to drive business value realization.
• Oversaw engineering capacity, build-vs-buy evaluations, budget forecasting, and billing transparency, successfully governing multiple vendor and managed-services partnerships to control scope, quality, and delivery costs.
• Championed iterative Agile/Scrum delivery methodologies, partnering directly with enterprise customers and internal business stakeholders to translate complex B2B operational processes into scalable technical solutions.
• Cultivated a high-performing engineering culture by mentoring development managers, implementing daily standups, and rotating staff across functional areas to prevent burnout and eliminate single-point-of-failure risks.
