Message

At Inflection AI, I developed services and React interfaces for enterprise AI applications, connecting LLM orchestration, conversation management, and streaming responses.

I built PostgreSQL/pgvector retrieval pipelines for indexed context records and optimized asynchronous request handling with Redis caching and connection pooling.

At DataRobot, I developed services and feature transformations for ML platform applications, including Snowflake optimizations that brought selected multi-hour pipeline executions to under 30 minutes. Earlier, at GLO Warehousing, I built frontend features and backend services for warehouse operations.
