I help software teams deliver clearly, manage risk, and keep complex work moving.

Based in United States (remote-friendly)

Current focus Scrum mastery, delivery clarity, quality alignment, and system-level risk

Direction Moving toward Scrum Master and delivery roles while carrying hands-on engineering context

About

I am a software engineer transitioning into Scrum Master and delivery leadership roles. Over an eight-year tenure at TeeJet Technologies, I moved from deep technical execution in embedded Linux and C/C++ into cross-functional coordination as an Interim Scrum Master. In 2026, I grounded this practical experience with PSM I/II and PSPO I certifications. I bridge the gap between engineering and leadership to drive product quality, mitigate risk, and ensure predictable delivery.

What I bring

Systems-level perspective across long-lived codebases, with a growing focus on team delivery, quality, and technical risk.

How I work

Clear facilitation, practical technical communication, early risk signals, and alignment between engineering and leadership.

What I value

Transparency, team flow, correctness, maintainability, and steady delivery under real constraints.

System Evaluation

Architecture reviews, delivery risk identification, and maintainability assessment.

Embedded Engineering

Embedded Linux, C/C++, and Qt/QML in production systems with real operational constraints.

Technical Due Diligence

Clear, grounded technical assessments to support informed delivery decisions.

Software Developer & Interim Scrum Master

TeeJet Technologies | May 2018 – March 2026

Operating on a tight-knit team of seven (1 PO, 1 SM, 5 Devs) over an eight-year tenure, I wore multiple hats to drive the development of a complex, modular platform for production agricultural equipment. Beyond embedded software engineering, I helped guide the engineering organization during its transition from traditional workflows toward mature Scrum-based delivery. To ensure uninterrupted team velocity, I regularly served as Interim Scrum Master, taking ownership of Daily Scrums, Sprint Planning, Sprint Reviews, and Retrospectives. In this hybrid capacity, I seamlessly bridged technical execution with Agile team coordination, contributing heavily to backlog refinement, QA alignment, and clear stakeholder communication throughout the project lifecycle.

Scrum Master is the primary direction; software development is available when the role needs deeper engineering context. Open to roles that need both — a Scrum Master who can contribute directly as a developer when the work calls for it.
