Claims a one-year reduction in drug time‑to‑market by shifting from COTS monoliths to a TypeScript/JavaScript stack (React, Node.js) on Azure DevOps cloud, building a microservices and serverless architecture. Deliverables include an industry‑first digital collaboration platform, a global data hub as a single source of truth, and persistent product teams (~6 people) shipping MVPs in ≤3 months. Outcomes: multiple MVPs in production, fully automated production releases in minutes, quarterly budget reviews tied to KPIs.
