What I'm looking for

A forward-thinking team hiring AI-native engineers — where directing AI tooling well is treated as a skill, not a shortcut. I'm most useful where agents meet reliability: evaluation harnesses, agent QA, guardrails, observability, and getting prototypes to production. Remote, and I work well async with written context.

I build AI that runs in production — architecture, learning loop, cloud deployment and live operations.

My flagship project, Smart Money Trading, is a patent-pending multi-agent system trading 8 crypto futures pairs on Google Cloud: 33,000 lines across 153 modules with a 166-test suite, six specialist personas under a learned Judge, and a weekly retrain gated on statistical overfitting checks. Every decision ships with a plain-English reason.

I came to AI from 4+ years at Deloitte leading a QA automation team for Fortune 500 clients, which is the part I think matters most right now. Everyone is shipping agents; far fewer can tell you when one is wrong. I build evaluation, monitoring and honest failure handling in from the start — my systems refuse to act on data they cannot verify, and any substituted default raises a warning rather than passing silently.

I'm also deliberately resourceful. All of the above runs from one 16GB laptop, because I'd rather invest in good instructions, reusable skills and repeatable workflows than in hardware. I work AI-native: I direct the tooling, review everything it produces, and own the result.

Rank 1 in my PGP in AI/ML (UT Austin McCombs & Great Lakes, GPA 4.09/5), Google Cloud Gen AI Academy certified, and looking for teams building AI products that have to survive contact with the real world.
