Strategy and engineering. Not one or the other.
I spent 6 years at Amazon — first as a Senior Technical Account Manager, the person companies call when they need someone to review their architecture, benchmark them against peers, and tell them exactly what to fix. I ran quarterly business reviews for enterprise accounts and sat across from engineering leaders every week.
But I didn't want to just advise — I wanted to build. So I moved to Software Development Engineer, spending years hands-on building LLM platforms and RAG pipelines for Amazon's internal teams.
I've sat in the room where leadership had to decide what to actually do with AI — and I've built the systems on the other side of that decision. That's what I bring to your team.
