Demonstrated people leadership, hiring, delegation, mentoring, performance management, conflict resolution, and cross-team delivery.
Experience briefing Government customers and translating mission outcomes into executable application plans.

Experience with AI-enabled application patterns, RAG integration, ServiceNow development/integration, workflow automation, or operational analytics.
Experience with microservices and modular monoliths, event-driven architecture, API gateways, message queues, and contract/schema governance.
