Accomplishments

    Enhanced the overall quality and security protocols within the organization by spearheading the formation of an IT Governance team. This dedicated team played a pivotal role in orchestrating the refinement and establishment of comprehensive processes, procedures, and policies for both IT and non-IT functions. Through systematic audits, the team diligently monitored adherence to these protocols, ensuring a robust framework for operational excellence. I led the charge in obtaining prestigious accreditations for the company, successfully securing ISO 27001, ISO 27701, and ISO 9001 certifications within a remarkable five-year timeframe. Furthermore, the company achieved compliance with the stringent requirements and regulations of NDPR and GDPR, solidifying its commitment to data protection and privacy.


    Revolutionized the company's software delivery process by undertaking a strategic reassessment of the technology stack entrenched for over a decade, resulting in a paradigm shift that not only improved efficiency but also significantly reduced costs. Pioneering this transformation, I championed the incorporation of cutting-edge languages and frameworks such as Typescript and Hybrid development. This innovative approach fostered end-to-end full-stack development, liberating developers from the constraints of traditional frontend, backend, or mobile frameworks and empowering them to seamlessly navigate across the entire engineering spectrum.

    Guiding a dynamic team of over 60 developers for a substantial 18-month duration, I orchestrated a comprehensive learning curve. This involved meticulously curating relevant training programs and courses to facilitate the acquisition of new knowledge and skills. Through hands-on collaboration during the development of novel products, we not only adapted to the evolving technological landscape but thrived in it. The results were truly transformative, as we successfully delivered complex projects with unprecedented efficiency, achieving the same outcomes with a lean team size that was merely a third of what would have conventionally been deemed necessary.
