What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build production-ready systems at the intersection of agentic AI and software delivery—where I can lead CI/CD, tighten security/authentication, and use deterministic multi-agent workflows to ship reliably with strong documentation.

I’m a software engineer with 4+ years building enterprise authentication systems, full-stack features, and AI-assisted engineering workflows. I’ve established documentation, tooling, and delivery processes from scratch where none existed—while keeping reliability and operational discipline front and center.

Right now, I’m Systems Developer II at the Industry Data Exchange Association (IDEA), contributing across a multi-stack platform (Django/React, .NET ingestion, legacy SQL Server pipelines). I’ve built key UI and ingestion components, resolved production defects, and led CI/CD infrastructure implementation with GitHub Actions—using deterministic, multi-agent and MCP server integration approaches to accelerate knowledge transfer from undocumented systems.
