What I'm looking for

I'm open to global remote work where I can build AI and cloud-native systems while helping developers adopt complex technologies through talks, demos, documentation, workshops, and practical guidance.

I've built production AI and cloud-native systems at MSCI and Zelarsoft, pairing hands-on engineering with developer enablement. At MSCI, I created an engineering-productivity intelligence layer used by leaders across four product teams and 16 sub-teams.

At Zelarsoft, I led delivery and product enablement for Cokpit AI, architecting a Kubernetes-native agentic GenAI backend handling about 10K API requests per day. I built AI guardrails, MCP integration patterns, reusable FastAPI and LangGraph boilerplates, and customer-facing technical guidance.

I also speak and write about agentic AI, APIs, cloud systems, and modern engineering, including a Kong API Summit 2025 keynote. Earlier, I led backend systems serving up to 1–2M requests per day and built Cetric AI, ranked Global #10 at Lovable Build 2025.
