Founding engineer building AI and data pipelines—turning LLM workflows into reliable, production-ready products.
What I'm looking for
I’m a founding engineer who builds content intelligence and personal branding experiences, with a strong focus on performance, reliability, and end-to-end delivery. I turn AI workflows into production ETL pipelines and reliable mobile or web experiences.
At Flowbee AI, I built queue-based background processing for compute-heavy tasks, cutting startup time by 70% (15s to 4s) by moving network calls off the UI thread. I designed an AI-driven theme and element classification pipeline using LangChain (Claude, OpenAI) and integrated it into a production ETL workflow.
I also focused on product operations: I enabled OTA updates with Shorebird, added push notifications via OneSignal, and implemented offline-first persistence with auto-recovery using Hive and centralized caching via GetIt. Using Clean Architecture with MVC and BLoC, I kept state management predictable and non-blocking, while instrumentation through Mixpanel, Sentry, and AWS CloudWatch supported real-time analytics and error tracking.
Beyond product work, I contributed 67+ PRs (55+ merged) to Learning Unlimited, improving backend performance, eliminating N+1 bottlenecks, and strengthening CI/CD with Docker-based reproducibility and contributor automation. I’m energized by shipping systems that are measurable, secure, and easy for others to build on.
