At PandaDoc, I led development of an AI agent that prepares production-alert investigations using context from Slack and Sentry. I also improved asynchronous job reliability with dead-letter queues and idempotency checks.

Across roles at Softup Technologies, Renaissance Reinsurance (via EI Technologies), and Ritech, I modernized Python backends, contributed to cloud migrations, and developed AI-powered sourcing and matching systems using OpenAI embeddings and Pinecone.
