What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build privacy-first AI products where I can own the full AI stack—observability, evals, and feedback loops—while shipping reliable full-stack experiences with strong engineering quality gates and measurable outcomes.

I’m a full-stack engineer turned AI engineering, with 5+ years shipping production Python and TypeScript systems and now building AI products that improve through engineered feedback loops. At Privy-MVP, I create LLM applications with end-to-end observability—tracing, evals, and prompt/cache analytics—so changes ship behind measurable quality gates.

I’ve delivered privacy-first, end-to-end AI platforms: building streaming chat and tool-calling coaching modes, an LLM memory system (insight extraction, compaction, dedup, natural-language search), and privacy-critical foundations like passkey auth, encryption, and hard-delete controls. Previously, I supported AI model-training workflows at Revelo by producing evaluated datasets for fine-tuning and RLHF, and at Hydrus/ sdl.engineering I built production ESG services (50K+ daily API requests) plus RAG-driven medical search.
