I ship production AI agents and embedded accounting infrastructure for SaaS platforms.
What I'm looking for
At Asset, I embed with vertical SaaS customers to discover, scope, prototype, and ship AI-powered embedded accounting integrations. I build production LLM features for transaction classification, financial agents with tool calling, and reconciliation workflows, supported by prompts, evals, and guardrails for financial-data accuracy.
I've delivered full-stack products across fintech, HR-tech, insure-tech, and e-commerce, including GoDaddy's checkout migration at Encora and a voter-guide platform at OpenBallot that reached 2,000+ visitors in its first week. At MercadoPago, I built features for a remunerated account serving 30M+ active users and processing roughly 1,000 transactions per minute.
I own delivery from ambiguous customer problems through production deployment, using AI coding agents to reduce delivery cycles from two weeks to 2–3 days.
