I build cloud-native platforms that make engineering teams faster, safer, and more resilient.
Principal Product Manager at Adobe, leading Ethos. CNCF Technical Oversight Committee member. CNCF End User Technical Advisory Board Vice Chair. Former KubeCon co-chair.
- Developer platforms: paved roads for build, deploy, observe, secure, and operate workflows across enterprise developer platforms
- Cloud native infrastructure: Kubernetes, GitOps, platform engineering, SRE, and open source governance at global platform scale
- AI-native operations: agent workflows, internal automation, and the infrastructure patterns needed to run them safely
- Community leadership: CNCF project strategy, end-user feedback loops, conference programming, and practitioner storytelling
I’m focused on how platform teams become the operating layer for the next generation of software delivery: AI-assisted development, trusted automation, observable systems, and production-grade developer experience.
The through line in my work is simple: reduce cognitive load for engineers without hiding the operational truth from them.
- I work across product, engineering, open source, and executive stakeholders.
- I care about platforms that are adopted because they solve real workflow pain, not because they were mandated.
- I believe good internal platforms shift complexity down into reusable capabilities while keeping teams accountable for production outcomes.
