Chief Technology Officer, Alterion AI
I align technical infrastructure with business goals. I turn trad eng orgs into AI-centric teams that ship products faster.
Late stage startups need to scale products without losing momentum. Fast growing public companies face the same challenge. I bring over 25 years of experience solving this. I led engineering and product teams at Splunk, Workday, and Cognizant. As CTO at Alterion, I am currently shepherding a fast moving engineering team while scaling up the forward deployed engineering posture of our customer onboarding and success organization. I understand the code. I understand the growth strategy. I understand how to operationalize it. I understand complex organizations.
Companies often struggle to turn prototypes into scalable products. This gap stalls growth. You need a leader who connects complex engineering with clear business strategy. Without this bridge you risk shipping products nobody wants. You risk losing market share to faster competitors.
I fix stalled product pipelines. I take ownership of engineering velocity to help you capture new markets.
You will know I’ve done my job when your release cycles shorten, quality improves, team performance improves, and customers feel the difference. Success means we ship your next generation roadmap features within days not weeks or months. It means your engineering teams drive continuous innovation instead of managing technical debt.
