I build AI-enabled web applications, LLM workflows, RAG systems, and automation tools for businesses that need practical AI implementation connected to real products, data, APIs, and users.
I am an applied AI engineer and software architect with deep experience in full-stack product development, enterprise architecture, systems integration, and technical leadership. My strength is not just calling an AI API; it is designing and building maintainable software systems where AI capabilities fit the actual business process.
I can help you build:
• AI-enabled SaaS features and internal tools
• LLM-powered chat, assistant, and workflow applications
• RAG systems and document-grounded generation
• Tool-calling agents and human-in-the-loop review flows
• AI automation connected to APIs, databases, and business systems
• Dashboards for AI agents, workflow state, approvals, and traceability
• Evaluation workflows, structured outputs, and quality checks
• Full-stack AI applications using Next.js, TypeScript, Python, Supabase, PostgreSQL, Vercel, AWS, OpenAI, Anthropic, and related tooling
Recent AI-related work includes:
• Production AI-enabled marketing SaaS using OpenAI, React, GraphQL, Node, AWS, social media APIs, email marketing APIs, billing integration, staging/production environments, and human review workflows.
• AI agent dashboards using Next.js, TypeScript, Supabase, OpenAI, Vercel AI SDK, durable workflow patterns, tool-calling agents, and persistent chat history.
• RAG-style biography workflow application using Next.js, Supabase, OpenAI, retrieved reference material, structured generation, and approval/disapproval routing.
• Weekend planning agent using Claude, tool calling, streamed responses, weather, search, routing APIs, and live agent trace display.
• MCP Web Reader server that fetches web pages and returns clean Markdown using the Model Context Protocol SDK, Puppeteer, Mozilla Readability, and Turndown.
• Computer vision and deep learning work using Python, PyTorch, OpenCV, EfficientNet-B2, ResNet50, TensorBoard, dataset curation, validation macro F1, checkpointing, and inference pipelines.
My background also includes senior full-stack and enterprise architecture work across React, Next.js, TypeScript, GraphQL, Node.js, PostgreSQL, AWS, Vercel, API architecture, authentication, integration patterns, testing, deployment, and maintainable application design.
I am not a frontier AI researcher, and I do not present experiments as production deployments. I focus on applied AI engineering: building systems that are useful, testable, maintainable, and aligned with real workflows.
If you need a senior engineer who can design the architecture, build the application, integrate AI capabilities, and think through reliability, maintainability, and business process fit, I can help.
