CTO and Co founder
I’m a technology leader with 25+ years of experience turning complex systems into simple, high‑impact products that create measurable business value. At OctaiPipe, I lead the R&D team flagship platform, ACE AI for cooling efficiency, its focus is on using AI and data to make industrial and commercial cooling systems radically more efficient—cutting energy consumption and carbon footprint while improving reliability and performance. I grew from a hands‑on systems developer (C#, .NET, Java, SQL, and large‑scale enterprise platforms) into a CTO who designs the architecture, governance, and roadmap for modern, data‑driven products. I work across edge, cloud, and on‑prem environments, ensuring our solutions are secure, scalable, and compliant with standards such as ISO 27001, ISO 42001 and ISO 9001. I enjoy: Designing architectures that are observable, resilient, and cost‑effective Building and mentoring teams to deliver consistently and improve continuously Measuring success not in features shipped, but in efficiency gains, cost savings, and uptime for our customers I still stay close enough to the technology to make sound architectural decisions, but my primary contribution is setting the vision, guardrails, and culture that allow teams to move fast, safely, and in alignment with our customers’ goals.

The candidate's diverse project experience across financial services, monitoring, and data analytics, coupled with roles ranging from developer to CTO and owner, suggests adaptability and a broad interest in technology. The focus on developing monitoring and reporting solutions aligns with roles requiring robust data pipelines and analytical capabilities. The long career trajectory and varied responsibilities indicate a proactive and continuous learning mindset, which generally contributes positively to cultural fit in dynamic technical environments. The 'Machine Learning Tsar' role and 'Cybernetics and control Engineering' degree also point to an interest in advanced analytical methods.
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate's experience as a team leader and architect suggests strong leadership, problem-solving, and project management skills. The descriptions of developing monitoring and reporting solutions imply a detail-oriented approach and a focus on operational efficiency. The long tenure in various roles, including an owner of a software company, indicates commitment and entrepreneurial spirit. However, without specific psychometric test results, a deeper assessment of work attitude, stress handling, and team collaboration is not possible.
