I’m a strategy-minded operator who turns ambiguity into decisions that stick—by making messy reality legible, surfacing tradeoffs, and building the mechanisms that make execution durable.
I’ve done this in two very different contexts.
· Led CI observability initiative across thousands of pipelines/1k+ engineers, driven by developer experience KPIs.
· Authored multiple decision/tradeoff memos adopted by leadership; e.g. change management redesign that removed major account-impacting outages vs baseline.
· Shifted cost decisions from infra-only to total cost (infra + developer time) by defining KPIs, running tradeoff analyses, and validating via pilots.
· Built FedRAMP compliance-compatible operating mechanisms (ownership, docs standards, review cadence) to cut operational drag while maintaining controls.
· Secured and operationalized a cross-functional workplace strategy mandate by benchmarking strategy functions, authoring the initial value prop + operating model, and establishing cadence.
· Drove global scenario planning across major offices amidst COVID uncertainty; structured exec choices across options and tradeoffs, informing new model and portfolio retraction/reallocation.
· Built an interactive futures-modeling tool (R model + meeting UI) used live in Director/VP workshops to vary assumptions in real time and generate decision-ready recommendations.
· Translated the direction into collaboration-first standards: desk ratios, team clustering, meeting-room availability/UX, and amenity mix toward social/collaboration and “bump-into” focus.
· Supported footprint decisions through scenario analysis.
