I like putting together and optimizing systems, and learning and discovering new connections. I’ve done this as well as a developer (e.g. for the world’s 30th busiest website or the largest live stream service) and have been doing so for some time as a leader. Continuous improvement is important to me, and to create an environment where everyone has room to grow and fulfill their potential. I like when the collaboration reaches a level where the whole is much more than the parts together. And to have a culture where only the idea matters, not the person who has that idea. I used to be the VPoE at Ustream and now I lead the development in the same role at Bitrise. I am working to make both our development team and the whole company a real learning organization.

I seek the opportunities to work with creative minds, young talents and innovation champions who build the products and services of tomorrow.
