Head of Backend Engineering building AI automations that turn repetitive workflows into measurable outcomes.

What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build AI automations that remove repetitive manual work—integrating LLMs with production backends and shipping measurable improvements. I’m especially interested in RAG-based support and workflow automation, with a team that iterates fast.

I’m a developer building AI automations for busy operators—focused on the repetitive, manual tasks that quietly eat hours of the week. I recently built an AI sales rep that took one client’s 523 written-off leads and turned them into 17 qualified conversations, with the bot doing the chasing and qualifying.

With 13 years shipping production backend systems, I currently lead backend engineering and AI integration initiatives. At Throwing Boulders, I built a RAG-powered support chatbot that automated ~20% of customer tickets, analyzed 10,000+ customer conversations with LLMs to surface 6 critical UX issues, and developed an AI-assisted development pipeline that 3x’d feature output while architecting Laravel/PHP infrastructure serving millions of requests.
