Executive AI and product leader specializing in media, advertising, and data platforms

Los Angeles, CA28y exp

“Serial entrepreneur in marketing and advertising who has founded four companies, most of them venture-backed. Has raised pre-seed and other venture funding multiple times, mentored at Techstars, and brings a strong investor network plus firsthand experience across the VC, accelerator, and launchpad ecosystem.”

“Early-career software engineer who owns revenue-critical invoice processing and internal ops tooling end-to-end. Has built TypeScript/React systems backed by MongoDB and Temporal, and designed scalable SQS-based onboarding workflows with FIFO/DLQ monitoring. Notably redesigned an Authzed SpiceDB authorization model, shrinking a 500+ line schema to ~20 lines while meeting sub-100ms p95 latency.”

“Customer-facing technical professional with Amazon incident-management experience who helps drive adoption of complex ML/LLM solutions by delivering hands-on demos and rapid model fine-tuning. Applies a disciplined debugging approach (repro + logs/metrics + severity triage) and maintains runbooks to resolve SEV2 issues in ~1 hour, while also partnering with sales/customer teams to ship patches and new features based on feedback.”

“Candidate is a hands-on engineer using AI as a controlled coding partner rather than an autonomous decision-maker. They have practical experience designing and leading structured multi-agent coding pipelines with specialized roles for code generation, review, and test coverage, and show strong judgment around reliability through schemas, guardrails, reviewer gates, and manual validation.”

“Meta engineer who emphasizes AI-native development workflows, using Claude Code heavily to ship UI and performance fixes quickly. Notable examples include a location-aware ad relevance feature that increased CTR and revenue, and a vehicle insights chatbot whose UX improved through metric-driven prompt tuning.”

“Engineering leader with experience building point-of-care diagnostics platforms (IoT-connected PCR device delivering results in <15 minutes) and scaling multidisciplinary teams (55+). Has led major data/IoT architecture decisions (multi-cluster Kubernetes with secure routing; Kafka + Gobblin over MQTT) and runs execution with Agile roadmaps tightly aligned to GTM and senior leadership.”

“Built and shipped production AI systems spanning customer support automation at Uber, privacy-preserving federated health modeling on iOS, and an open-source semantic search layer for Postgres. Stands out for combining strong LLM/product instincts with rigorous eval design, measurable production impact, and zero-to-one execution across backend, mobile, and developer infrastructure.”

“Growth-stage full-stack engineer with recent hands-on Go work in a compliance-focused B2B SaaS environment and deep prior experience in React/TypeScript, Node, PostgreSQL, and Elasticsearch at Tend. Stands out for owning cross-stack performance, search, and reliability improvements in fast-moving teams, including reducing latency, improving search efficiency, and designing integrations for regulated operational workflows.”
