“Built an end-to-end automated trading system for Polymarket, including Go/Python execution services, Terraform-scheduled ETL/feature pipelines, and monitoring on modest hardware. Also shipped a production LLM+RAG signal verifier/explainer that grounds trade decisions in external context (news/social) with vector DB retrieval and guardrails, plus a lightweight RAGAS-style eval loop on ~50 resolved markets that improved signal faithfulness by ~15%.”

“Early engineer at a fast-growing startup who owned an AI-powered portfolio/site generation workflow end-to-end (frontend in Next.js App Router/TypeScript through backend orchestration). Emphasizes server-first security/performance (Server Components/Actions, revalidation), and production hardening with validation, caching, observability, retries/idempotency, and CI/E2E testing.”
