What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead AI-assisted, full-stack product development where I can own architecture, security, delivery systems, and product strategy while building reliable platforms with human-reviewed AI workflows.

I founded AOAI Solutions, where I direct AI-assisted engineering, product architecture, and delivery across software products and client engagements.

As sole product lead and engineer for PepScore, I’m building a full-stack commerce and operations platform that unifies CRM, invoicing, payments, shipping, fulfillment, and transactional communications. I modeled its 26-entity PostgreSQL schema, built a 141-test automated suite, and remediated production payment and shipping integration defects.

For CIOS, I architect a six-domain career intelligence platform with database-authoritative RBAC, transactional identity synchronization, audit trails, and a four-job CI/CD pipeline. I also established a policy-governed AI orchestration architecture with mandatory human review and input redaction.

I bring product leadership, systems architecture, security remediation, requirements engineering, and hands-on full-stack delivery to products such as Störk, Homework Helper, and BirdWatch.
