At Upstart13 Inc., I own enterprise-wide architectural direction, AI platform design, and technical governance across client accounts and engineering teams. I design production-grade AI systems and guide technology choices across backend, data, web, and mobile platforms.

I’ve led adoption of AI-assisted development tools such as Claude and Cursor to improve developer productivity and delivery workflows. I also govern cloud-native platforms on Azure and AWS, and lead legacy modernizations, including monolith-to-microservices migrations with zero production downtime.

At Nanoautomation, I served as the sole architect and primary engineer, designing and launching XRIOT and Nano Service Desk for field engineers and connected IoT devices. I built end-to-end IoT solutions across edge devices, cloud services, data processing, and web and mobile applications; the platforms remain in active production.

Earlier, at Netsolutions, I built and led the Research & Development function and delivered integrations across CCTV, access control, BMS, and ERP platforms. Across my work, I’ve guided engineering teams and communities of practice, partnered with executives on technical decisions, and designed systems with long-term reliability and maintainability in mind.
