Senior Engineering Manager / Fanatics Betting & Gaming

Engineering leadership where reliability, scale, and execution matter.

Senior Engineering Manager with 20+ years across architecture, platform modernization, and multi-team execution — focused on making complex systems easier to operate, improve, and trust.

I’m most useful where the technical problem and the organizational problem are tangled together: shared platforms, reliability, release confidence, cross-team ownership, and the operating models that keep delivery from turning into theater.

Selected impact

Concrete operating improvements, not résumé fog.

The useful signal is not just the title. It is the pattern: clearer ownership, safer releases, stronger reliability, and teams that can move without guessing.

Led teams supporting content delivery, CMS, and shared platform services across sportsbook and retail web/mobile experiences.

Raised operational maturity with observability, SLOs, load-testing strategy, and incident-response practices.

Improved release confidence through CI/CD enhancements, governance, automated validation, and rollback automation.

Reframed shared services into a scalable partnership model for distributed product teams.

Leadership profile

Strategy, operations, and execution in one lane.

I’m at my best in roles that require business alignment, systems thinking, and calm delivery leadership at the same time.

Strategic leadership

I help senior leaders turn broad priorities into engineering plans, operating models, and technical decisions that can actually hold under growth.

Translate business needs into technical direction
Shape platform strategy and shared-service governance
Create clarity in high-ambiguity environments

Operational scale

My bias is toward systems that improve reliability, release confidence, and organizational efficiency without becoming process theater.

Observability, SLOs, and operational ownership
Release governance, CI/CD, and rollback safety
Higher execution quality with less friction

Team and platform building

I build the structures that let teams contribute safely, move faster, and maintain credibility with both leadership and one another.

Mentorship from early-career through senior staff
Cross-functional alignment across product and platform groups
Standards that strengthen both speed and durability

Selected experience

Current leadership first. Broader trajectory behind it.

The through-line is consistent: stronger operating models, more reliable platforms, and teams that execute with better judgment.
