I'm building secure firmware and access-controlled AI knowledge platforms.

What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build secure, practical systems where low-level engineering, cybersecurity, and AI architecture can create reliable products with strong access controls.

I'm building security-focused systems at NXP Semiconductors, where I support Hardware Security Engine integration for automotive S32Nxx microcontrollers.

I debug low-level C and assembly on CPU modules using Lauterbach Trace32 environments, automate integration testing through CI/CD, and implement code coverage to support MC/DC quality metrics. I also use LLVM toolchains to compile and optimize C for target processor platforms.

As co-founder of KAIGuide, I lead engineering and architecture for an AI assistant that answers employee questions only from internal company knowledge. I've built a working full-stack RAG MVP with Laravel, React, a Postgres vector store, document ingestion, deterministic role-based routing, and layered safety and access controls; it was accepted into Delta Bootcamp 2026.

My earlier cybersecurity and IT infrastructure training at Romgaz included SOC monitoring, detection, incident response, and Oracle SQL. I also bring networking foundations from Cisco Networking Academy and experience leading training sessions at Logiscool.

Co-Founder

Apr 2026 - Jul 2026 (3 months)

Co-founder at KAIGuide, an AI assistant for mid-market companies that answers employee questions exclusively from a company's internal knowledge base.

I lead engineering and architecture: building the platform end to end, and making sure that "access control by design" is a real guarantee rather than a tagline. My co-founder owns product and go-to-market.

On the technical side, I've built KAIGui
