Senior software engineer. Extensive front end and back end experience. I've spent most of the past four years building AI agents and related system.

I built an open-source, plugin-based agent framework. It supports tools, delegated jobs, knowledge bases, browser and computer control, database access, custom UIs, and image/video workflows.

Lately I've been working on a low-latency, self-hosted voice agent system that uses direct SIP, streaming STT and TTS, Qwen 27B, and vLLM.

I'm also building a browser-based 3D AI character project as a side project. It runs small models such as Gemma 4 and MiniCPM 5 locally through WebGPU. Other recent work include employment verification, medical document processing with complex RAG, browser automation,interactive avatars, and data analysis agent workflows.

Most of my work crosses several layers of the stack. I'm comfortable with frontend and backend web development in Python and Node.js, agent design, model serving, infrastructure deployment. I especially like greenfield projects, though I don't need everything to start from scratch.

Hey, Ian here. I'm a software engineer with 3+ Years of experience developing full stack web applications. My experience lies most recently in observability, co-creating Trickl as part of a distributed team across two continents. I have embraced AI fully into my workflows, while retaining the solid SWE fundamentals that were instilled into my over the past 5 years.

I value empathy and communication, and am looking for a team of like-minded individuals who want to create great software together! If you think I'd be a great fit, or want to know more about me, please reach out.

Software engineer with a background in infrastructure, backend systems, and developer tooling. I enjoy building systems that are easy to operate, easy to change, and automate away repetitive work. Strongest areas are Nix/Linux, CI/CD, infrastructure, and Rust/Python.

Most recently I was a Founding Engineer at Alpha Story. I built features across the stack, led an authentication migration from Supabase Auth to an in-house system with no downtime, automated infrastructure with OpenTofu and GitHub Actions, cut CI times by more than half, and stepped in to lead engineering after the CTO left.

Before that I worked in production operations supporting more than 100 AWS-hosted government websites, where I wrote internal tools to automate operational workflows.

I contribute to nixpkgs, Home Manager, Hyprland, NVF, pullomatic, and other open-source projects. Personal projects are mostly around Nix, Linux, Rust, and developer tooling.

I'm looking for backend, platform, infrastructure, or developer tooling roles.
