Engineering & Management Consulting

The explosion of AI capabilities makes alignment and adaptability more critical than ever. When everyone can build faster, the differentiator becomes building the right thing together.

I help engineering organizations develop the values, metrics, and processes that keep teams pulling in the same direction—even as conditions change.

Aligned Teams Through Embodied Values

Your team will operate from a shared understanding of what matters—not just documented values, but principles that show up in daily decisions, code reviews, and sprint planning.

Success Metrics That Drive Behavior

Clear performance targets and resource requirements that connect individual work to organizational outcomes. When people see how their contributions matter, engagement and velocity follow.

A Process to Execute and Adapt

A practical system for prioritization, execution, and course-correction. Not a rigid framework, but a living process that evolves with your business and the technology landscape.

20 Years of Engineering Leadership

As VP of Engineering at Ookla, I grew and led a team of 90 engineers building consumer applications serving 80M+ monthly active users and enterprise SaaS products generating $150M in revenue. I’ve hired, organized, and developed engineering teams from 5 to 90 people.

Proven Systems That Scale

I’ve implemented Agile processes, established leveling guides, developed interview processes, and created team structures that balance autonomy with alignment. I’ve integrated 7 acquired companies into cohesive engineering organizations.

Measurable Results

I don’t just advise—I help you define and track the metrics that matter: DORA metrics, velocity, predictability, and business outcomes. My teams consistently delivered 25% year-over-year growth while maintaining quality and morale.

Growing Pains

Your team is scaling, but coordination is getting harder. What worked at 10 engineers doesn’t work at 50. You need structures that preserve speed without sacrificing alignment.

AI Disruption

AI tools are changing how your team works—and how fast competitors move. You need to integrate these capabilities thoughtfully while keeping your team focused on what creates real value.

Execution Gaps

You have a strategy, but execution is inconsistent. Different teams interpret priorities differently. You need a way to connect vision to daily work.

I’ve navigated these challenges across consumer apps, enterprise SaaS, APIs, SDKs, and embedded products. Let’s define a project with clear goals and build the systems your organization needs.
