Product Engineer who designs.
I am a product engineer with a knack for design and management. Started in web3, building blockchain systems and DeFi platforms, then moved into AI, shipping LLM apps, RAG systems, and now going deep into agent orchestration. Small teams, fast ships, real products. Outside of code I play guitar, obsess over 70s rock and vinyl, write poetry, and read philosophy. Running Polyjamorous as a music curator. Have a cat named Lenon. Dream is a cottage in the mountains and a shack by the sea, building software and making music.
Email is fastest. I read everything. I usually reply within a day.
Where I spend my hours — and the small things I've shipped alongside.
Led full-stack work on its core systems. Built the screen recording pipeline, a work reward flow, and a task marketplace. Owned execution across engineering and design while the team turned over. Joined back to build Ω Focus for iOS and macOS. Designed its LLM decision loop, moved screen understanding on-device, and wrote the persona evals that test it. The first stint captured what people do on their screens. The second used that context to tell them what to do next.
LifeOffline is a locally-hosted tool that archives years of unwatched Instagram reels and saved posts. It downloads all videos/images, extracts captions, and transcribes audio via Whisper, with everything staying on your machine. Stack: FastAPI backend, Playwright for scraping, instaloader for downloads, Next.js frontend with WebSocket progress updates. Handles carousels, age-restricted/private content, and rate limits. Built as the foundation for a future LLM layer to extract value from passively consumed content.
CallMe is a voice AI agent that calls you over phone, not the other way around. Twilio for the line, Silero VAD to know when you're speaking, Whisper to transcribe, Llama 3.1 as the brain, Cartesia for a voice with actual character: laughter, tone, personality, not assistant drone. Deployed on a self-built GCP pipeline with full CI/CD and custom domain routing. Every model in the stack was chosen on real benchmarked latency, not vendor marketing.
Built web3 portfolio management software with liquid staking and liquidity pools. Designed and developed landing pages with motion graphics. Set up company-wide design system and code infrastructure.
What I reach for. Roughly grouped, loosely opinionated.
