Hi, I'm Brian! I'm a Chief of Staff, strategy consultant and program manager, and I love to partner with engineering leaders and teams to help build healthy, effective organizations and solve the business problems you don't have the patience/expertise/desire to deal with.

I act as a 'bridge' between leaders and teams, to identify strategic and operational problems, and deliver solutions.

Some examples of problems I've solved for previous clients (FAANG, Fortune 100 and all the way down to 1-person startups).

> Built global content operations team and scaled to support multiple enterprise products, delivering internationalization, technical writing and more

> Built global PMO function, from hiring to processes to artifacts

> Financial (TCO) modelling for global IT transformation, including all telecoms categories such as network investments, mobile, SCADA, and more, leading to 20% category saving with improved SLA/SLO terms

> Global Analytics function transformation, from visioning to success planning, org design and operating model design.

Open to contract, full-time, or consulting-type arrangements - I'm looking for interesting experiences where I can help meaningfully transform your team or business or product.

I also provide leadership coaching (presentation and communication skills are a specialty!).

Reach out for a detailed resume and to schedule an initial consult.

Willing to relocate: yes to Paris, France

Technologies: Python, Clojure, Java, AWS, Kafka, Terraform, Kubernetes, React, Avro, TypeScript

My dream position:

- Business impact: always a business case to improve things with lower latency, higher availability, better scalability, lower operational costs. What some businesses really need is just a static webpage in Cloudfront: I want more.

- Corporate structure: a result-driven company that welcomes innovation. I'm happy with either large enterprises that move slowly or small nimble start-up, each has different strengths :-)

- Technical mindset: bottom-up tech design, right tool for the right job. Client-oriented design. Revenue-oriented & business-focused, it should matter from day 0. No abstraction is better than bad abstraction. Let free patterns emerge from organic growth.

- Technical landscape: data-intensive systems that can be relied upon, with strong business-relevant needs for performance, reliability, durability, and resilience.

- Team dynamics: engineers have and share areas of responsibility. No echo chamber or ivory-tower architect. All of us are collectively accountable for systems maintenance and architecture.

Location: New York, NY

Remote: Yes, as well as hybrid and on-site

Willing to relocate: No

Technologies: Ruby, Node.js, JavaScript, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, AWS, Docker

I'm a software engineer based in New York City with strong fundamentals in programming and web technologies. I enjoy thinking about infrastructure and data. My biggest strength is a voracious appetite for learning. I'm currently in the process of devouring DDIA to build up my fundamentals for system design, as well as challenging my problem-solving abilities with Leetcode problems (currently up to 72).

Most recently, I worked with a remote team over multiple time zones to build a monitoring solution, specifically designed for CDNs. If you want to know more, I authored a technical case study exploring the problem space and our solution: https://canopy-framework.github.io/

I'm looking for a new opportunity. Feel free to reach out if you think I may be a good fit for your team!
