Experience

Built around the parts that make AI useful after the demo.

01

Production AI workflows

Multi-stage document processing, structured outputs, evaluation harnesses, durable execution, source traceability, and expert review.

02

Platform engineering

Distributed systems, backend APIs, data workflows, caching, queues, observability, migrations, and production reliability.

03

Healthcare software

Eight years across healthcare research, veterinary systems, payment workflows, and high-trust operational software.

Working principles

Capability is useful only when the system stays understandable.

  • Define the outcome before choosing the model.
  • Verify with representative cases, not demos.
  • Keep humans at consequential decision points.
  • Treat structured outputs and failure handling as product behavior.
  • Prefer the smallest architecture that can meet the operational requirement.
  • Leave the client's team able to understand and own the system.
