About
I didn't come to the business side first — I came to it through code. Over a decade I shipped software at global scale: Software Engineer at Plumgrid, Principal Engineer at Afiniti deploying AI into contact centers for United Health Group and Virgin Media, and Staff Engineer at Grafana Labs, where I built a catalog of 101+ integrations.
I built Techanzy Limited on the side for five years. In 2025 I went all in. Today it's an AI-native software company and end-to-end technology partner: we take full technical ownership of our clients' products, and build our own.
I'm not a business guy who hires engineers — I'm an engineer who learned the business. You get someone who has shipped the hard things and treats your engineering like his own.
What I do now
Techanzy Limited takes full technical ownership of software — design, development, delivery, and support, end to end. We don't just write code; we run engineering.
