I had the pleasure of managing Mark, the Team Lead of the Core Services team at Okra, and I couldn't recommend him more highly. Mark is an exceptional technical leader, possessing a deep understanding of the technologies and systems his team works with. He is always willing to lend a hand and help his team members when they need it. He is also an excellent mentor, taking the time to share his knowledge and experience with junior engineers. Mark's leadership skills are outstanding. He is able to lead his team effectively, making sure that all team members are aligned and working towards the same goals. He is also very adept at fostering a positive and collaborative work environment, which helps the team to work more efficiently and effectively. Mark is an excellent leader and mentor and an asset to any team he works for. I have no doubt that he will continue to excel in his career.
