Senior technology leadership, a few days a week.
I help fintechs and scale-ups run reliable platforms and build strong engineering teams. That covers infrastructure, operations and offshore teams, without the cost of a full-time executive. I bring 12 years leading infrastructure and operations teams of up to 180 people across Dublin and Lahore.
Four ways I can help, each with a clear scope.
Fractional CTO / CIO
Part-time technology leadership for companies that need an experienced head without a full-time hire. I set strategy, own vendor decisions, hire and coach leads, and represent technology to the board.
Offshore team build in Pakistan
I recruit, set up and run an engineering or operations team in Lahore for your company, with your culture and standards. You can take it over once it's running smoothly.
Cloud cost & reliability review
A focused review of your cloud bill, architecture and incident readiness. You get a prioritised plan that cuts spend and reduces outages, and your team can carry it out.
Payments & fintech operations
Practical help for card programmes, issuers and payment startups. I cover processor selection, operations and support models, technical account management, and readiness for PCI audits.
I've built and run these teams myself.
Head of Technical Account Management · i2c Inc.
Led product operations for a global card-issuing and payments platform, then reshaped it into a technical account management function. The organisation was about 180 people, mostly software engineers.
SVP, Enterprise Infrastructure · Afiniti, Dublin
Built the enterprise infrastructure team from scratch to about 100 people. I ran the platform behind an AI company with enterprise clients worldwide, and led the team through growth and a restructuring.
CIO & VP Infrastructure · Systems Limited
Led IT and infrastructure, managing engineering teams at one of Pakistan's largest technology services companies.
