Skills
I have 5 years in engineering leadership positions (Director of Engineering), backed by 5 years in frontend product development (Javascript/React).
I'm big on people-first, process-oriented solutions. I run teams on solid foundations of high transparency, clear expectations and high standards of delivery.
I've worked across start ups and scale ups, doubling engineering teams, introducing key functions such as product discovery & delivery processes, planning & estimation processes, hiring pipelines, people management frameworks, career devevelopment initiatives, training and more.
