Targeting a founding full-stack engineer role in NYC with meaningful equity.”

“Software engineer with strong end-to-end ownership across frontend, backend, data, and infrastructure, including real-time systems (Kafka/Postgres) and observability (Datadog). Built and productionized an AI-native RAG support assistant (OpenAI embeddings + Pinecone) with prompt/guardrail design, achieving 48% agent adoption and 30% faster responses. Experienced in legacy modernization and reliability work using feature flags, event/transaction replay, and rapid embedded delivery.”

“Built and productionized an internal LLM-powered document Q&A system at Morgan Stanley using a LangChain-based RAG pipeline (FAISS + OpenAI) with AWS ingestion (S3/Lambda), handling 100k+ pages and cutting lookup time ~35% while keeping responses under 3 seconds. Strong on reliability: automated evals/CI (pytest + GitHub Actions), CloudWatch monitoring, drift detection (prompt drift and fraud-model drift), and security controls (IAM + app-level authorization) in a financial-services environment.”

“Built GoEngineer’s first production AI systems, including an end-to-end RAG pipeline for SolidWorks technical support using Azure Blob Storage, Azure AI Search, and Azure OpenAI, plus an AI summarization feature adopted by sales/customer success. Strong in productionizing LLM workflows with evaluation harnesses (golden sets, LLM-as-judge, red teaming, shadow deploys) and Azure infrastructure integrations (Redis, Service Bus, App Insights), and has also implemented a custom MCP server for agentic monitoring.”

“Built and shipped a production LLM-powered customer support triage/resolution agent that automated ~60% of tickets, cutting response times from hours to seconds and improving first-response resolution by ~40%. Experienced designing multi-tenant, tenant-isolated agent architectures with RAG, schema-based tool calling/strict JSON validation, and strong reliability practices (guardrails, retries, fallbacks, monitoring), including safe integration with messy ERP-like data.”
