Hands-on support
Mentorship for leaders who want to scale without losing their values.
I don’t believe leadership is a title you receive it’s a practice you refine. Most coaching focuses on the "Noun" status and authority.
My mentorship is for those who want to master the "Verb", the intentional habits, difficult conversations, and technical foresight required to build high-performing, human-centric teams.
With over 20+ years of experience from hands-on DevOps to C-suite advisory I help Engineering Managers and aspiring VPs navigate the transition from "doing" to "leading." As a Top 9% Mentor globally, I provide the frameworks you need to lead with clarity, empathy, and technical excellence.
My Expertise: Three Pillars of Growth
1. Leadership & Culture (The Human Element) Moving from a technical contributor to a leader requires a psychological shift. I teach you how to build high-performance cultures, master decision-making frameworks, and practice Psychological Safety as a prerequisite for technical excellence.
2. Modern Infrastructure & Platform Strategy Leveraging my background in Cloud Infrastructure (AWS/GCP), Security Engineering, and Developer Experience (DevX), I help leaders build stable, scalable foundations. We focus on:
• Designing "Internal Platforms" that empower developers.
• Mastering Incident Management and SRE principles.
• Balancing technical debt with rapid product delivery.
3. AI Strategy & Implementation I help leaders move past the hype to practical application. We focus on AI Leadership Transformation: identifying high-ROI use cases, optimizing workflows with LLMs, and building "future-ready" teams that embrace automation without losing the human touch.
Why Mentor with Me?
I act as the "Human" lens in a technical world. Whether we are discussing Kubernetes cost-optimization or managing remote team burnout, you get a partner who has been in the trenches of high-growth SaaS.
• Proven Authority: Upcoming author and creator of a leading Substack on Engineering Leadership.
• Real-World Impact: I currently advise startups on security, scale, and AI-integrated workflows.
• Action-Oriented: No "fluff." You leave every session with a clear roadmap and actionable strategies you can use in your next 1:1 or Sprint Planning.
What We’ll Work On:
• Active Leadership: Transitioning from passive management to proactive influence.
• Resilient Systems: Leading through high-pressure security incidents or outages with calm.
• The AI-Infra Bridge: Securing and scaling infrastructure that supports AI-driven workloads.
• Sustainable High-Performance: Building a style that prioritizes mental well-being and long-term retention.
Stop holding the position. Start practicing the verb.
