Hire an AI engineer

I am a senior engineer focused on building AI features and agents into real products, with 12+ years of production experience behind me, available now and fully remote.

Most AI work fails not at the model but at the engineering around it: data, evaluation, cost control, and shipping something that holds up in production. That is where my background helps, since I have spent years building reliable data pipelines and full-stack systems.

I can take an AI feature or agent from idea to a shipped, evaluated, cost-aware product, and I am honest about where AI helps and where it quietly adds risk.

What I bring

  • AI features and agents wired into real products, not demos.
  • Evaluation, cost control, and reliability around LLMs.
  • Full-stack engineering foundation in Go, TypeScript, Node, and React.

Proof, not promises

Real work, written up plainly:

Let us talk

Tell me what you are building. I reply fast.
