What I'm looking for

I seek engineering roles combining systems-level C++ development, GPU/AI inferencing, and technical project leadership in collaborative, impact-focused teams.

I am a systems software engineer and technical project manager with deep expertise in C++, GPU compute (CUDA, Vulkan), compiler and graphics programming, and AI inferencing pipelines. I have led open-source contributions to major browser projects, designed and implemented a C++ spreadsheet compiler supporting the MS Excel formula library, and built production services using C++ and modern messaging and inferencing stacks.

My background combines hands-on engineering and project leadership: I managed web application and systems projects across finance, AI, and systems engineering, supported a multimillion-dollar project as a project management intern, and completed mechatronics engineering with First-Class Honours. I contribute widely to open-source tooling and benchmarks that improve performance and safety in large C++ codebases.
