Also built durable multi-step AI-agent workflows using Inngest with state machines, checkpointing, and validation gates, and has hands-on Postgres performance tuning experience validated via EXPLAIN ANALYZE.

  • Production observability and analytics instrumentation (PostHog, Sentry) with proactive UX follow-up
  • Real-time product engineering (WebSockets, Redis, optimistic updates) for chat-like experiences
  • Performance-minded React/Next.js UI patterns (Suspense/streaming, memoization, caching)
  • Postgres query optimization with measured validation (EXPLAIN ANALYZE; index scan vs seq scan)
  • Designing durable multi-step workflows with checkpointing, timeouts, and validation gates
  • Startup execution in high-growth contexts (founder/CTO/CPO; 10k users, 3k DAU platform)
