Julius L.

As Vice President of Engineering, I lead technology strategy, innovation, and execution for a leading SaaS company in the hospitality industry. With over two decades of experience in cloud computing, software development, and enterprise architecture, I’ve built and led high-performing teams while ensuring consistent, on-time delivery of technology initiatives. Working across industries such as retail, finance, healthcare, insurance, manufacturing, and education, I have driven technology transformations that enhance performance, reliability, and cost efficiency. I have scaled engineering teams from a handful of engineers to more than three hundred and successfully navigated economic downturns with strategic efficiency. Taking a pragmatic, results-driven approach, I align technical priorities with business goals to ensure solutions deliver maximum value within a reasonable timeframe. Beyond engineering leadership, I have played a key role in M&A due diligence, leading technical assessments of acquisition targets. I’m also deeply invested in AI/ML, combining formal coursework with independent study in neural networks, LLMs, reinforcement learning, NLP, and computer vision. My focus is on opportunities where technology leadership drives real business outcomes — scaling platforms, building high-performing global organizations, and applying AI to create meaningful product and competitive differentiation.
