I am currently Senior Director of Engineering at NVIDIA, actively hiring for my team.
Current Role at NVIDIA (2024-Present)
I lead an organization that builds and operates large-scale GPU infrastructure powering a growing subset of NVIDIA DGX Cloud across NVIDIA on-prem datacenters and NVIDIA Cloud Partners. Our team owns end-to-end infrastructure automation and new capacity introduction (NCI), enabling GenAI and ML platforms such as Nemotron and NVIDIA Cosmos.
Because DGX Cloud requires secure, repeatable, and rapid adoption of new NVIDIA platforms at scale, the organization includes two DGX Cloud horizontal teams:
Infrastructure Security partners closely with NVIDIA security to design, deploy, and operate preventative, detective, and mitigative controls embedded directly into DGX Cloud infrastructure.
Systems Engineering New Product Introduction (NPI) team works across CSPs/NCPs, firmware, and cloud software to automate validation and operationalize platforms such as Blackwell (GB200), GB300, and future architectures—feeding production learnings directly into DGX Cloud readiness.
Background
26 years in technology, including 11 years in management (Senior Director, Director, Manager). Recent roles combined field CTO/CISO responsibilities with leading teams across product engineering, SRE, security, IT, and data. Largest team: 120 people.
