Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (August 2026)

I build self-running AI agent systems for businesses — the kind that operate 24/7 without human babysitting.

Recent work:

- Designed and currently run a fully automated digital-products business: content generation, publishing, payment processing, delivery, customer email — zero human touches per order. The agent fleet handles ops, monitoring, and self-healing.

- Cut my own AI automation infrastructure bill by 97% via model tiering (frontier models only for hard tasks), replacing agent polling loops with stdlib scripts, and running a 465GB local MoE model on a Mac Studio for bulk generation.

- Built browser and GUI automation for legacy desktop software (Windows trading terminals, Electron apps) where no API exists, including watchdogs and power-loss recovery.

Technologies: Python, LLM tooling (local + API models), Playwright / browser automation, Docker, Linux ops, WebSockets, data pipelines.

What I'm good at: you hand me a manual business process, I hand back a system that runs itself — with monitoring, alerting, and failure recovery included. Fixed-price projects preferred.

Summary: Senior Systems Administrator with eight years of enterprise IT experience across healthcare, manufacturing, and freelance environments. Specializes in PowerShell automation, systems reliability, and security focused operations. Completed an Associate of Applied Science in Cybersecurity and currently completing a Bachelor of Science in Information Communication Technology and a Master of Science in Computer Science. Strong ability to evaluate entire business systems including technical infrastructure, operational workflows, and customer facing processes, and deliver structured improvements that enhance stability, compliance, and performance.

20 years shipping full-stack products, most recently spent putting LLMs into a workflow where being wrong has consequences. I built and run Arcoflow, a SaaS platform for HOA architectural review, including an AI reviewer that checks homeowner submissions against each community's own guideline PDFs and drafts a cited decision. Forced tool-use for structured output, prompt caching ordered so the expensive stable content is the reusable prefix, and an explicit "I cannot assess this" path so it declines instead of inventing a covenant.

Writeup of the architecture: https://soleary1222.github.io/notes/covenant-review/

Before that: led a team of 10 through a legacy-to-cloud re-architecture at a healthcare staffing company (Swift/Java/PHP to React Native and .NET Core microservices). Looking for senior/staff IC or forward-deployed work where shipping matters more than headcount.

Hello, I’m Edikan... a user-centered messaging strategist, and a lot of what I share on linkedin is really just me thinking through product messaging in public. I look at what SaaS products are saying, how users experience those products, and where those two don't match up. I’ll often look at the website, reviews, customer stories, forums, and the product itself to understand what users are seeing, missing, or struggling to understand.

But the research is really just where the thinking starts. I use what I learn to develop clearer product messaging, create messaging from scratch when needed, and turn those ideas into creative content across graphics and sometimes video. That’s the kind of thinking and creative work I’d love to bring in-house. https://www.linkedin.com/in/edikan-peters-978340281
