What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build and deploy trusted AI agent systems, especially where MCP integrations, enterprise workflows, secure execution, and real customer constraints demand hands-on engineering.

I build and deploy production AI agent systems, MCP integrations, and agent workflows in environments where nothing works out of the box. At Quincy Labs, I built MCP integrations over a 500+ channel, 8-year research corpus and operate scheduled Claude and Hermes agents that publish market updates unattended.

At Omo Protocol, I shipped a multi-chain transactions plugin into ElizaOS and integrated Coinbase MPC Wallets, Lit Protocol threshold cryptography, and Hyperliquid’s Nucleus SDK into live agent infrastructure. I work across TypeScript, Python, Rust, Docker, AWS, and CI/CD to turn external systems into reliable agent capabilities.

I’ve also led engineering and UI/UX for Emergency Passport, an AI-native app designed around a hard 60-second patient-context interaction budget. I’m used to replacing broken SDKs, debugging across third-party systems, and working directly with domain stakeholders to ship checkable, trusted products.
