I build production AI systems — agent runtimes, LLM tooling, RAG — and the backends behind them, in Rust where reliability matters and Python/TypeScript to move fast with a team. Most recently I wrote the core of Ward in Rust myself (agent runtime, analytics layer, multi-tenant audit/security model); it runs in a paid POC against a $400M, 850-store retailer's live SAP data. Before that I co-founded a YC W24 startup, took a Meta Marketplace product from zero to ~10k monthly transactions, and re-platformed a failing commerce backend to Rust that cut its AWS bill ~70%. ~10 years across fintech, healthtech, and commerce.
