Signify Health (CVS Health)

• Named by HCD CTO Amaresh Siva at HCD Townhall for AI SDLC program leadership; at CVS Leadership Live, CEO David Joyner asked, “How do we get this to propagate throughout CVS?” — and designated AI SDLC co-architect by VP of Engineering Shubha Chaudhuri; the only IC reporting directly to a VP.
• Owns the company-wide AI SDLC program (SEALS-198) across 11+ engineering teams: proof point — 11 teams onboarded in 2 days vs. the prior 1–3 months; measured 3–5× "idea to testing" velocity improvement; chairs a weekly Executive SteerCo and a cross-org forum with 80–100+ attendees across US and Ireland time zones.
• Founded jAIson Bourne / Hallucination Ward — an autonomous multi-agent governance system with 400+ sessions, 79+ formal proposals (PROPs) with veto windows and quorum rules, and 22+ CHAOS tabletop exercises; no organizational precedent existed for this capability.
• Created Evidence-First Development (AnchorKit): replaces 12–20 drift-prone markdown artifacts per feature with 1–3 executable files (Gherkin .feature + optional eval suite + optional ADR), now adopted as engineering standard; also built Repo-Sage, which mines PR review history to auto-generate CLAUDE.md team conventions.
• Built Relic (spec management platform, 247 PRs) including its self-hosting pipeline — non-developers submit GitHub Issues, AI agents autonomously run the full specify→plan→implement cycle and deliver Draft PRs; built Library-Agent (org knowledge API indexing 1,372 repositories, 246 PRs) from scratch.
• Designed the AI-native development framework propagated to 100+ repositories; led a framework simplification audit cutting LLM context overhead by 60% (2,932 → 1,180 always-apply lines, 4,948 lines removed) — reducing cost and latency for every consuming team.
• Authored 43 clinical system specifications in a single day (Feb 2026) covering FHIR R4, Kafka/NServiceBus, .NET 10, React 19, and PostgreSQL migration; led Gang-of-N parallel AI reviews (7, 15, and 30 agents) surfacing 64 architecture issues and 5 P0 security findings; delivered AI immersion workshops in Galway, Ireland — named “indispensable” by VP Casey Lucas; contributed 1,767 GitHub PRs across 133 repositories.

Osmosis from Elsevier

• Accountable for five software development teams, each comprising an Engineering Lead, 2–4 developers, and a Quality Engineer.
• Led migration of the front-end to React; implemented i18n for Spanish, broadening accessibility to a new market segment.
• Delivered full CI-CD in GitHub Actions with end-to-end smoke tests and regression suites, ensuring high-quality, consistent releases.
• Streamlined authentication via Auth0 SSO (Google & Facebook), built a new cross-product shared data pipeline, and provisioned an anonymized demo environment.
• Absorbed and integrated the Business Intelligence team into the engineering org, promoting cross-functional collaboration.
• Removed legacy Fibers JavaScript library; introduced GitHub Copilot, New Relic, Checkmarx, and SonarQube to sharpen quality and security posture.

Elsevier

• Managed back-end component teams for the ClinicalKey platform — 9 direct reports, 14 total headcount.
• Migrated 15 back-end Java repositories from Maven to Gradle, dramatically reducing local and CI-CD build times.
• Rolled out SonarQube static analysis across all ClinicalKey repositories (Java & JavaScript).
• Restructured development squads around component ownership, improving efficiency, shared knowledge, and team autonomy.
• Introduced ephemeral environments, eliminating dual long-lived branches and the overhead that came with them.

Elsevier

Lead engineer on Elsa — an end-to-end content creation platform for authors, contributors, and Elsevier staff. Directed four teams with 20+ developers across on-shore and off-shore.

• Designed and executed a migration from Backbone.js to React, using Lerna to manage the front-end monorepo.
• Consolidated ~100 back-end Java repositories from Maven into a single Gradle monorepo, significantly cutting build times.
• Introduced SonarQube scanning in CI-CD for long-lived branches and pull request builds.

L3 Technologies – Communications Systems East

• Ranked among top software engineers annually over a 15-year tenure.
• Achieved technical lead or architect role on every program worked; continually requested as lead on new and existing programs.
• Served as the go-to technical adviser for management and peers across all programs.
• Received personal recognition awards on every program worked.
