Chief AI Architect / Director of AI with 15+ years across ML, software engineering, data science, and globally distributed team leadership. I own end-to-end architecture for enterprise AI products — from high-throughput sensor/IoT ingestion and RL/MPC control through agentic LLM workflows, computer vision, and the user-facing product.

Selected impact:

- Designed and led a hybrid MPC + reinforcement-learning control system that cut industrial plant energy usage ~10%.

- Built and led a distributed AI/software/data team across Canada, the US, Singapore, Malaysia, and India, scaling from 5 to 25 while raising experimental rigor and delivery cadence.

- Standardized cloud, on-prem, and air-gapped Kubernetes delivery (Rancher Fleet + Hauler), cutting deployment time from 2 weeks to 3 days.

- Previously worked on an FDA-cleared prostate-cancer detection system in production at Paige AI, and delivered ML across merger-approval prediction, legal-document summarization, and warehouse optimization at AltaML.

Greetings fellow hackers!

I’m a high-agency, high-energy, eclectic, serious, fun, creative techie who’s done lots of things at BigCos and startups. My happy place is working hard with smart people on something big and complex that makes the world better.

After several years in the consulting/contracting game, I am looking for an ambitious team to join. Maybe yours!

A few of my spinning plates right now: Golang inference worker, two Expo apps in TS/RN, Python data pipeline, AWS IoT for HVAC-adjacent devices, shared FFI components in Rust, and a HealthTech web app in TS/React.

Interested? Drop me a line, and if you’re in the Bay Area let’s grab a beverage!
