Head of Backend Engineering building AI automations that turn repetitive workflows into measurable outcomes.
What I'm looking for
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.
