I'm an Engineering Manager at Adobe, San Jose, focused on platform engineering — the CI/CD systems, internal tooling, and developer platforms that Adobe's engineers build on every day.

I manage Adobe's default CI/CD systems and services. My portfolio also includes Adobe Service Runtime (our Java foundational libraries), Gen AI Diagnostics, and Bootstrap Code Templating Services. I lead the Adobe Service Runtime team and also work on Adobe's Internal Developer Platform, used by thousands of Adobe's developers to generate code, integrate with Adobe's internal services, and deploy to Kubernetes. More on these in Projects.

I'm drawn to the unglamorous layer of software — the platforms, build systems, and release pipelines that rarely get talked about but decide how quickly everyone else can move.
