@chrisuser48
AI systems architect at AETHRUM who built an agentic AI platform with MCP integrations and controlled execution.
What I'm looking for
At AETHRUM PTY LTD, I independently architected and built an AI platform from first principles, taking ownership from frontend and backend engineering through integrations, deployment, and production hardening.
I built its agentic architecture around specialist agents, context-aware routing, tool invocation, and multi-step workflows. MCP integrations and external service connectors let agents interact with real systems beyond text generation.
I designed execution controls with approval flows, durable receipts, and safe failure behavior, keeping human approval boundaries explicit. I also implemented model-routing and fallback concepts across commercial and open-model infrastructure.
I work primarily with TypeScript, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Supabase, and have deployed and operated across Cloudflare and Railway. My background also includes customer-facing IT and commercial roles, including national sales leadership at NSN Infotech.
