Software Engineering Coaches

I am a Staff Software Engineer at LinkedIn with more than twelve years of hands-on experience building and operating large-scale backend and full-stack systems, including LinkedIn’s latest generative AI products like AccountIQ and Seller Assistant. Inside LinkedIn I mentor engineers through our formal coaching program, guiding them from entry level to senior and staff roles while sharpening their system-design thinking, coding-interview skills, and promotion or compensation negotiation strategies. I also volunteer with Code Tenderloin and coach privately, helping career switchers break into engineering roles at leading global tech firms such as Google, Amazon, and other Fortune 500 innovators. Clients who work with me routinely achieve concrete results in six to eight weeks: landing new roles, securing promotions, and delivering complex features with improved reliability and performance. My coaching blends deep technical insight with clear, actionable feedback and a strong focus on mindset, so you leave each session equipped with both the hard skills and the confidence needed to excel in today’s software-engineering landscape.

I coach software engineers and technical professionals from the perspective of someone who has built and hired for high-performing engineering teams. At Amazon, I led the Prime Now Tech recruiting team, partnering closely with engineering and product leaders to scale a software organisation focused on supply chain optimisation and last-mile logistics at significant operational scale. I understand how engineers are evaluated — not only for technical capability, but for ownership, systems thinking, collaboration, and measurable impact. While I do not coach on technical coding assessments, I specialise in career strategy, promotion readiness, behavioural interviews, and navigating growth within complex organisations. I also work with engineers in a broader life coaching capacity — supporting decision-making, confidence, leadership presence, burnout prevention, and personal transitions that often accompany demanding technical careers. I bring formal executive coaching training along with ADHD coaching certification, equipping me to support diverse cognitive styles with clarity and strengths-based strategy. My approach integrates career advancement with whole-person alignment — ambition, wellbeing, relationships, and long-term sustainability in high-performance environments.

Over the past 10 years I have written software at companies of varying sizes and stages of their maturity. During this time I have done more interviews than I can count and mentored some junior engineers as they rose up in their careers. My personal experience includes: - working at a startup that doubled in volume of traffic our services must serve - led a multi-team project to integrate machine learning into our internal systems to scale our operations - joined an early stage startup as we were iterating on the product and acquiring our first paying customers
