Highlights
Modernised the technology stack
Modernised an ageing technology stack without disrupting the business. Replacing old technology that the company depends on, while keeping it running, is high-risk work that pays off in reliability and capability for years.
A technical leader who develops people
Relied on by leadership to keep the technology reliable and moving forward and by engineers as a manager who develops them, credited with modernising the stack and building a team that stayed.
Built a team that stayed
Built a technical team that retained its people. Technical talent is hard to keep, so a team that stays and grows reflects a manager who develops people and builds an environment engineers want to work in.
