NOW WRITING: GEN AI PATTERNS

ARCHITECTING
THE
FUTURE.

A practitioner’s field guide to cloud-based microservices and the emerging architectural frontier of generative and agentic AI.

About

I am a technology leader and architect with deep experience designing, modernizing, and scaling cloud-native distributed systems across enterprise environments. Over the course of my career, I have led multi-million-dollar initiatives and transformed large, mission-critical monoliths into resilient, microservices-based platforms operating across multi-datacenter and cloud environments.

My work spans retail, e-commerce, supply chain, telecommunications, telematics, travel, electronic payments, and automotive industries—giving me a broad systems perspective and the ability to abstract complex problems and apply proven architectural patterns across domains. I have held senior technical roles at AWS, Macy’s Technology, GM, Verizon, and Perot Systems, building platforms with significant scale and business impact.

My current focus is on agentic AI, applied machine learning, and resilient system design—particularly how deterministic workflows, retrieval-augmented intelligence, and synthetic data can improve forecasting, planning, and decision-making in complex enterprises. I write, mentor, and study with a single goal: turning emerging technology into practical, trustworthy systems that endure.

Expertise

  • Global and enterprise supply-chain architecture (inventory and logistics) and retail (OMS, DOM)
  • Large-scale modernization: monolith → microservices → cloud-native platforms
  • Resilient, high-throughput distributed systems across hybrid and multi-datacenter environments
  • Cloud platforms and orchestration (GCP, AWS, Kubernetes, containerized workloads)
  • Event-driven, asynchronous, and data-intensive architectures
  • Scalability, reliability, and performance engineering
  • Production machine-learning systems and architectural standards
  • Technology evaluation, architectural governance, and engineering leadership
