Chief Architect

About Me

Chief Architect with 25 years of experience designing, governing, and delivering complex enterprise systems across regulated and non-regulated industries, including transport, defense, and financial services. Currently Director of Architecture, accountable for architectural direction, technical quality, and platform evolution at enterprise scale.

I combine deep hands-on technical expertise with architectural leadership, operating from strategic principles down to concrete design decisions, trade-offs, and implementation guidance. I specialize in building scalable, modular, and event-driven architectures that enable rapid delivery without compromising quality, security, or compliance.

I work closely with engineering leaders and teams to ensure architecture remains pragmatic, executable, and continuously validated in code and production. My focus is on reducing complexity, enabling autonomous teams, and establishing architectural foundations that scale with both technology and organization.
