I build and scale engineering teams that transform industries. From leading hundreds of engineers at Microsoft and Instacart to co-founding ventures at the intersection of AI and business, I've learned that systems outperform hustle every time. My philosophy is simple: "Speed of execution is a feature." I help founders and engineering leaders build scalable operations through frameworks, not just hard work. Currently focused on: - Building next-generation AI solutions - Advising high-growth startups - Sharing insights on scaling engineering teams and operations When I'm not building technology, I'm in the cockpit of my Vision Jet, turning travel time into productive time. If you're passionate about using technology to solve meaningful problems at scale, let's connect. As an angel investor, I enjoy working with ambitious entrepreneurs on disruptive AI, crypto, enterprise SaaS, and consumer internet solutions. My newsletter. https://foundermode.kit.com/
