Software engineer

AI-first software engineer building cloud-native, data-driven products and intelligent systems.

Software Engineer

I design and build AI-oriented applications, cloud platforms, and data-driven systems that are practical to ship and easy to evolve. My work spans agentic workflows, LLM-backed products, data pipelines, infrastructure automation, and the engineering discipline needed to run them well.
