At Tesla he led cross-team architecture and vendor alignment to meet regulatory and billing requirements, helping unlock multimillion-dollar programs. His background includes accelerating OTA pipelines, building fault-tolerant snapshot coordinators for distributed systems, and shipping test benches that saved hundreds of engineering hours.
