I build enterprise open source governance programs.
Governance, compliance, supply chain security, and OSPO strategy — at the scale where open source becomes a strategic asset.
I’m an open source leader with 7+ years building and scaling enterprise open source governance across VMware, Broadcom, and Omnissa — from a portfolio of 10,000+ engineers and hundreds of products to a net-new function built single-handedly.
I led open source governance through one of the largest transitions in the software industry: the Broadcom acquisition of VMware and the subsequent carve-out into Omnissa — ensuring continuity of compliance and community engagement throughout. My work spans executive leadership, legal, engineering, security, and product, turning open source from a risk-management function into a strategic business capability.
- Built Omnissa’s open source compliance function from the ground up as sole practitioner — an OSPO-lite operation across 50+ products and 2,000+ engineers, with 100% compliance coverage of customer-facing releases.
- Led governance continuity through the Broadcom acquisition of VMware and the carve-out into Omnissa — a rare combination of M&A integration, carve-out, and compliance continuity.
- Improved automated compliance resolution from ~50% to 90%+, removing release-cycle bottlenecks across VMware’s full product portfolio.
- Governed 150+ GitHub organisations and 10,000+ repositories — most inherited through acquisitions — establishing contribution workflows and community health monitoring at enterprise scale.
- Led evaluation and enterprise deployment of FOSSA as the open source compliance platform for a newly independent software company.
Based in Sofia, Bulgaria. Open to conversations on open source governance, OSPO strategy, and supply chain security.
