I build the operating systems that hardware companies run on. Expertise ranging from portfolio architecture, firmware pipelines, AI-instrumented operations, to go-to-market infrastructure.
I'm a program and operations leader with deep roots in telematics hardware. This is the kind of work that sits at the intersection of engineering execution, commercial reality, and organizational design.
Over a career spanning Positioning Universal, Verizon Networkfleet, Spireon, DriveOK, and beyond, I've built the cross-functional infrastructure that turns hardware roadmaps into shipped products: intake systems, milestone frameworks, resource models, risk pipelines, and the decision architecture that keeps everything moving.
I think in systems. I lead at executive scope. And I build things that outlast my presence in the room.
Full-lifecycle program management across hardware, firmware, and software. Intake systems, milestone frameworks, resource pressure modeling, risk pipelines, and go-to-market readiness across multiple distribution strategies.
I design the cross-functional systems that connect engineering execution to commercial outcomes. Charter-driven delivery, decision accountability, and operational cadence that actually sticks.
Twenty years of domain depth in connected vehicle technology, fleet tracking, embedded firmware, ODM partnerships, and cellular connectivity across TSP, fleet, and dealer channels.
Designing and deploying GEO/AEO instrumentation — LLM visibility auditing, query monitoring, and AI search presence measurement as operational infrastructure, not a one-time exercise.
Builder of the operational infrastructure that runs the business: Flask/SQLite backends, SharePoint-integrated dashboards, intake and charter tooling, automated portfolio health reporting, and the data pipelines that keep decisions grounded in reality.
A structured LLM Visibility Audit Kit: three buyer personas, five LLMs, a standardized query library, a five-dimension scoring rubric, Python automation, and a quarterly CEO report template. Repeatable instrumentation, not a one-time snapshot.
Six workstreams initiated: schema markup and LLM crawler access, analyst relations to correct a Berg Insight mis-segmentation, subsidiary brand inclusion in trade media, structured JSON-LD spec sheets, brand architecture review, and a Q3 2026 re-audit against baseline.
I designed the system, established the baseline, and translated findings into cross-functional tasking. I own the scoreboard. Not the content.
A Flask/SQLite backend with full schema across programs, resources, phases, milestones, risks, decisions, and dependencies. Milestone frameworks by program type — HW/FW (11 milestones), FW-only (7), SW (4). Commitment classification (Committed / Probable / Speculative / On Hold) to prevent pipeline distortion in capacity calculations.
Six auto-generating SharePoint-embedded dashboards refreshed on demand: rolling 3-month milestone calendar, portfolio health report, RAG status report, risk panel, portfolio summary, and a resource pressure index that surfaces overallocation before it becomes a delivery miss.
Leadership moved from reactive check-ins and scattered spreadsheets to a live, consistent view of portfolio health across 42 programs. The system surfaced a critically overallocated engineering resource that had been invisible in the prior model, and allowed leadership to adjust resource allocation months before the over-allocation impacted delivery results.
The same instinct that drives operational architecture shows up outside of work. Currently:
Concept album project. The Hollow Archive — a body of work exploring industrial tension and signal decay. Influenced by FLA, Skinny Puppy. Built track by track.
Indie survival game in development under Packed Tight Games. Systems design, world-building, and solo development. The same love of complex interlocking mechanics that shows up at work.
Executive program leader with deep ops roots. Targeting VP Operations and VP Program Management roles in hardware, IoT, and complex product businesses.
