I build AI platforms, enterprise SaaS, and cloud-native distributed systems. I have 20+ years of software engineering experience across fintech, retail, gaming, ERP, solar, and healthcare — from founding SaaS businesses to modernizing platforms for international companies.

My current focus is LLM-powered applications, AI agents, multi-agent orchestration, and RAG, backed by software architecture, backend engineering, and reliable delivery practices.

• AI engineering: LLM applications, agent orchestration, data pipelines, and Spec-Driven Development (SDD).
• Platform engineering: legacy modernization, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, observability, automated testing, and cost optimization.
