Open to AI engineering leadership, platform, applied AI, and enterprise architecture roles.
01Building
- A reference architecture for prose-first agentic systems — turning natural-language specs into deployable agents with retrieval, evaluation, and guardrails baked in.
- AI-driven QA tooling that closes the loop between failing tests and code suggestions.
02Evaluating
- Custom ML vs. managed services (AWS Comprehend, Azure AI) for document understanding at scale.
- Agent evaluation harnesses — what "passes" really means for non-deterministic systems.
03Writing
- A field guide to prose-first agents for operations teams.
- Lessons from taking AI from prototype to production in a regulated environment.
04Reading
- Recent eval / agent papers, plus anything thoughtful on team topology for AI orgs.
