What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a senior full-stack or AI engineering role where I own problems end-to-end, from architecture to production. My best work is on AI-powered products (RAG, agents, semantic search) and high-throughput backends where reliability matters - shipped both, at 15M+ user scale and from scratch.

I’m a software engineer who builds AI systems and payment infrastructure that have to hold up under real load.

These days I architect AI-powered platforms for a US marketing-tech company: a real-time analytics product that turns 3-4 hours of manual competitive research into minutes, and a no-code AI tool platform running at 100% uptime and 50-60ms latency. Before that, working in large-scale fintech and e-commerce, I engineered the FX configuration behind 10-15M+ daily cross-border transactions across 6 countries, and scaled Pix payments to 5M+ simultaneous transactions for a 15M+ user base.

On the side, I built and shipped my own B2B SaaS: AI-powered client memory for sales teams. Go, React, Qdrant and Claude, 300+ active users, sub-100ms semantic search.

What I care about: RAG, agentic systems and high-performance backends that survive production - and the business outcome they unlock, not just the architecture diagram.
