At Enru Logistics, I own the planning intelligence and analytics platform for a multi-facility logistics network. I validated a modeled 40% lane-planning cost reduction in backtests with a CP-SAT planner, and automated the pipeline from refresh through optimization and QA.

I migrated legacy IBM WebSphere integrations to Microsoft Fabric and Apache NiFi, cutting integration costs 88%, and made pipelines 2–2.4x faster through set-based batching. I also built a multi-agent Claude Code system to help the team build, test, review, and operate pipelines.

Before Enru Logistics, I managed developers at Alvarez & Marsal on a TigerGraph truck-assignment and route-planning platform. At Merkle Science, where I grew from the first big data engineer to Associate Director, I built the blockchain data platform and grew the data engineering team from 2 to 8.
