ABOUT ME
Full-stack & AI engineer with 15+ years building production systems
Full-stack & AI engineer with 15+ years building production systems
I’m a full-stack engineer and technical lead with 15+ years of production experience across backend platforms, distributed systems, and agentic AI.
Currently leading engineering at a U.S. SaaS company where I’ve shipped 0→1 platforms, RAG pipelines, multi-agent workflows (LangGraph, MCP), and LLM-integrated systems — all in production, serving real users. My stack spans Python (FastAPI, Django), Node.js/TypeScript, PHP (Laravel), React, PostgreSQL, and AWS.
I mentor because most of the hard lessons I’ve learned — system design under real constraints, debugging production AI, owning delivery end-to-end — don’t show up in tutorials. I want to help developers bridge that gap: from writing code that works to building systems that hold up.
I can help you with:
- Backend architecture and API design (Python, Node.js, Laravel)
- Production agentic AI: RAG, LangGraph, LLM integrations, eval harnesses
- Full-stack SaaS development
- Code review and engineering best practices
- Career guidance for senior/lead engineering roles
