I've spent 8+ years shipping B2B software for global teams, including eight years remotely with a New Zealand-based team at Blacklock Security.

At Blacklock Security, I built Cyra, a tool-using AI vulnerability validator that reduced supervised human triage time by roughly 50% while surfacing reproducible evidence and execution costs directly in the product. I also delivered LLM security scanning, Azure OpenAI exploit-chaining workflows, and customer integrations for OAuth, SAML SSO, Stripe, Slack, and Jira.

Across independent client projects, I've built an OCR and LLM reconciliation pipeline that cut a distributor network's cycle from one week to one day, a Hindi-English debt-collection voice agent, and an AI safety review console covering 16 failure modes.

I build end-to-end systems with Python, TypeScript, React, Next.js, Django, FastAPI, cloud execution infrastructure, and practical LLM evaluation.
