I build products, the platforms they run on, and the teams behind both.

Supersolid is a company I co-founded to build its own software for quantitative trading and for equity and prediction-market analysis, and to run trading strategies on it. I lead the company and design the platform it runs on.

1. 01Designed the trading platform end to end: it takes in market data, hosts trading strategies, enforces risk and health limits, sends orders to brokers, and gives operators one console to watch and control everything.
2. 02Built a research engine that finds which of more than 14,000 US stocks move together, fast enough to rebuild a full year of history in under fifteen seconds.
3. 03Set the rule that a strategy earns capital only from its live results after real trading costs, never from backtests alone.
4. 04Organized engineering around AI coding agents that work from written briefs and are checked at every step, so a three-person founding team ships like a much larger one.

Elara Travel is an AI-first luxury travel agency, started by the team behind Wildbit and Postmark: software does the research and planning, and human travel experts stand behind it. As CTO I led engineering, product architecture and the AI systems from the first commit.

1. 01Built the product end to end: a conversational travel planner on a serverless backend with real-time sync.
2. 02Designed the multi-agent AI concierge at the core of the product, with specialist agents for hotels and destinations.
3. 03Connected live hotel inventory through Sabre, the global travel booking network, so recommendations reflect what is actually available.
4. 04Put AI operations in place from day one: versioned prompts, tracing on every model call and production error monitoring.

TrueML runs TrueAccord's platform for resolving consumer debt, where every customer contact is governed by consumer-protection law. I joined as a staff engineer and went on to lead two engineering teams.

1. 01Led the Operations and Compliance engineering team, which built and maintained the core systems of the debt-resolution platform.
2. 02Led the architecture and development of a new CRM to replace a legacy system.
3. 03Promoted to Senior Engineering Manager to lead Agentic Workflows, a team building AI-driven automation for how the company engages its customers.

Deployment was Beanstalk's most-used feature, so Wildbit spun it out as its own continuous-deployment product. I led it from the extraction through to the acquisition.

1. 01Rebuilt the deployment engine as a product of its own, adding Docker-based build environments and customizable build steps.
2. 02Owned the roadmap, the infrastructure and advanced customer support with a two-person engineering team.
3. 03Got the business ready to sell: code and documentation in order, billing moved from Chase Paymentech to Stripe, hosting moved from dedicated servers to AWS.
4. 04Trained the buyer's engineers and handed the product over cleanly.

Beanstalk was one of the first services to combine Git and Subversion hosting with a collaborative web application. As its original technical lead I designed it and scaled it as thousands of development teams came to rely on it.

1. 01Designed the web application and hosting backend, and scaled them from zero to millions of page views a month under strict uptime requirements.
2. 02Built the deployment engine, which ran up to 50,000 customer deployments a day.
3. 03Rebuilt how incoming code was processed, 50,000 to 100,000 commits a day, making the critical steps 30 times faster and cutting interruptions customers noticed.
4. 04Designed code mirrors in several regions that customers could read from and write to, each finding its nearest copy automatically.

Conveyor combined version control with task management in a desktop app people kept open all day. I led its technology from the first line of code, including moving the team to a new stack and the infrastructure to a new cloud.

1. 01Built the cross-platform desktop client from scratch: 50,000 lines, designed to work offline and update live.
2. 02Retrained the team's Ruby and JavaScript developers and designers on TypeScript, Electron and React.
3. 03Moved the infrastructure from dedicated servers to Google Cloud and Kubernetes, so it scales and recovers on its own.
4. 04Designed the build and release pipeline to survive failures and stream its logs live.
