Bio
Sophear Sann
As a direct report to Alberto Janza (CTO), I have had the pleasure of learning new technologies under his guidance. Alberto was brought in to help transition the company from an old infrastructure onto a highly scalable platform on AWS. At the time, he was able to pinpoint quickly where the company's pain points were and guide us into a fast and reliable service, as well as document the roadmap and plan of action. While working on the transformation for the company, he did not forget an old timer like me and my peers. As CTO, he ensures that we have access to training in order to help with the transition and grow our skillset. I am grateful to have had the pleasure in working with Alberto during his tenure at Grayhair Software, Inc. Regards, Sophear Sann (Srey)

I'd jump at any chance to work with Alberto again! He is a brilliant technologist, always versed in emerging and current technologies and able to solve complex business cases. Alberto solutioned and implemented a complete systems re-architecture to the Cloud for GHS. He also coached his development team to prepare them for the re-architecture, while at the same time working with leadership and stakeholders to prep business changes needed. Alberto is passionate and caring is his approach, and is well respected by team members and stakeholders. He is a charismatic leader and would be a welcome addition to your organization.

GrayHair Software has been a leader in the US mail-tracking for more than 20 years. Its success story serving 500 fortune companies in the healthcare and finance world, and today's data-workload pressures coming from the mailing industry required a technological evolution. I've led GHS technological transformation. GHS technological transformation included product consolidation, new tech product architecture, data migrations to the cloud, and a tech workforce revamp that could support the initiatives. I've created and executed the company-wide roadmap of such transformation.
