At GetLoopie.ai, I built an end-to-end AI execution platform around event-driven workflow automation, including explicit commitments, automated follow-ups, and delivery-risk detection. I owned the system design, FastAPI/Python backend, and UX from zero to production, with idempotency, state machines, retry logic, correlation-ID tracing, and audit-ready event logs at its core.

At Certa (Opinr Inc. d.b.a. CERTA), I designed and shipped a No-Code Workflow Engine with conditional routing, integration polling, retries, dead-letter handling, and SSO with role-based permissions. Its workflows were deployed at Bain, McKinsey, and Fortune 500 clients; I also built compliance workflows and audit trails, and maintained 90%+ automated test coverage while the platform ran at P99 below 100 ms.
