Founding Engineer and full-stack developer building AI-powered platforms—shipping from zero to revenue-ready systems.
What I'm looking for
I’m a founding engineer and full-stack developer with 5+ years of experience building production systems end-to-end—from zero-to-one engineering through scaling. I thrive where product, architecture, and execution need to move together fast.
At Tryflume.ai, I was the sole technical founding member during the Hf0 residency, provisioning GCP infrastructure, designing relational data models, and setting up CI/CD to ship the initial platform that helped secure $3M+ in pre-seed funding. I also architected a multimodal search engine over 200GB+ of supplier data, reaching NDCG 90%+ using a Gemini-based custom reranker.
I engineered automated acquisition and ETL across 4,000+ suppliers with headless scraping (Browserbase, Playwright) and Gemini Vision to convert PDFs into a “vectorless RAG” schema. On the product side, I led frontend architecture across five React/TypeScript applications, established a shared component library/design system, and cut quote turnaround from days to hours by building the core sourcing engine with FastAPI and PostgreSQL.
Previously, as SDE2 at American Express and SDE1 at BrightMoney, I led frontend and backend work on compliance tools, real-time query experiences, integrations using Plaid, and high-volume data aggregation with FastAPI and caching. I’m energized by roles where I can own architecture, ship reliably, and apply modern AI/search to real customer workflows.
