Engineering Director of AI Reliability

I make Qira a reliable and trusted everyday AI companion for millions of users.

For eighteen years, my career has been defined by a single pursuit: designing the architecture of reliable systems and building the organizations required to sustain them. The trajectory of my work spans the entire spectrum of modern engineering, from the lean urgency of co-founding startups and delivering multi-cloud software from its earliest inception, to orchestrating global platform operations for millions of active users at enterprises such as Sony and Red Hat. Today, I bring this entire background to bear as I establish the global AI reliability organization for Lenovo’s new AI ecosystem, Qira.

My philosophy rests on the principle that reliability cannot merely be patched onto a finished system; instead, we must treat the entire software development lifecycle, from the first draft of a feature specification to its ultimate deployment, as an observable product in its own right. To achieve this, I apply the rigorous discipline of site reliability engineering far beyond the codebase. I connect technical execution with the wider organization, aligning engineering teams with critical partners such as those in legal, procurement, and product. Ultimately, my mandate is to resolve the tension between speed and safety, empowering developers to innovate at their absolute limits while maintaining an unyielding foundation of systemic trust.
