What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead end-to-end delivery of AI-powered mobile and web products, from architecture and backend systems through subscriptions, production releases, and mentoring engineers.

I've led engineering for Kumatomo and KumaGuardian, delivering real-time Gemini-powered companion and parental-oversight experiences across Flutter mobile apps and web. I own architecture, release quality, mentoring, Firebase backend delivery, and subscription billing with Stripe and RevenueCat.

At Zee Palm, I delivered 10+ production mobile and web apps, built TypeScript and Node.js APIs, integrated Firebase services, realtime chat, search, payments, and CI/CD store releases. I also led code reviews, mentored junior developers, and managed Flutter versioning.

I'm also building Spectoria and Art2Life, generative AI video, image, and editing products with production creator workflows, credit-based purchases, scalable media storage, and App Store and Play Store pipelines.
