My passion lies in solving complex problems that have real-world impact, and I thrive in environments where innovation meets purpose.At AWS, I lead global strategic initiatives within our multi-billion-dollar Automotive & Manufacturing Business Unit, focusing on three key pillars of electrification: battery technology, charging infrastructure, and EV-specific connected vehicle experiences. I work closely with CXOs, engineers, and cross-functional teams to develop and execute scalable, forward-looking strategies that enable sustainable growth.One of my proudest contributions has been co-developing the Battery Digital Twin specification with the DIN (German Institute for Standardization)—a collaborative industry-first that is paving the way for transparency, efficiency, and performance across the battery lifecycle.My approach blends technical depth with business strategy. I help organizations reimagine how data can power cleaner, smarter mobility—unlocking value from EV workloads, digital twins, and sustainable infrastructure at scale. Develop enterprise architecture frameworks, governance models, and scalable architectures (e.g, TOGAF-certified) aligns with business strategy.If you\'re passionate about transforming the transportation and energy landscape—or want to explore what’s next in EVs and sustainability—I’d love to connect
