At Sonar, I built the first MCP server and reintroduced the CLI as an agent-first tool, creating a deep agentic coding harness for enterprises worldwide. Previously at Snyk, I launched AI Codefix — one of the first agentic issue remediation systems — led teams to deliver an AI-powered security analysis engine, and drove a PLG motion through developer education that reached millions of developers worldwide.

Beyond my day role, I invest in and advise startups (Supaplan, ChampsTracker), mentor future product leaders at Product Academy, and publish on AI in the SDLC — including “AI in the SDLC: Cutting Through the Hype” and “The Productivity Paradox of AI-Assisted Coding.”

I partner with founders, boards, and global teams to translate technical innovation into business impact — whether scaling ARR, driving GTM, or shaping platform ecosystems.
