Projects

Sentinel Trace

TypeScript · Next.js · OpenTelemetry · Convex

Watches multi-agent LLM pipelines in real time. Ingests telemetry using the OpenTelemetry GenAI conventions and stores every trace in Convex, so you can catch drift, track latency, and see what each agent costs per token.

Shadow Architect

Next.js · React Flow · Convex · Python

Turns infrastructure configs (AWS, Docker, Bazel) into interactive topology graphs using a team of agents. A drift-detection loop compares state between runs and flags anything that changed without approval.

Gulf Job Agent

Python · Claude · Playwright

A self-hosted AI job application agent for the Gulf (UAE, Saudi, Qatar, Kuwait). It discovers roles, scores them, and applies using Claude and Playwright, with a human approving every step.

Hackathon winner

ICOM

Python · Pydantic AI

An AI incident commander that handles triage, comms, and remediation during live incidents. Built with Pydantic AI. Won Arctic Wolf's internal hackathon.

Glucose Analytics

TypeScript · FHIR · Claude

Blood-glucose dashboard that pulls patient data from a FHIR server, charts readings with summary stats (time in range, estimated HbA1c), and generates diet & lifestyle recommendations with Claude. Built for CS6440 at Georgia Tech.

FormulaForge

Python · FastAPI · MLX · Next.js

A local-first Excel formula copilot: a fine-tuned Qwen3-0.6B model (MLX + LoRA) proposes formulas, then a deterministic validator checks syntax, references, and execution before anything is shown. Workbooks never leave the machine.

FlappyAI

Python

A Flappy Bird AI in Python. The bird teaches itself to thread the pipes.

Where I've worked

  1. Jun 2024 — May 2026

    Remote

    Software Engineer II

    Arctic Wolf
    • Owned the Bazel build platform for a Python monorepo shared by 500+ engineers: deterministic builds and shared tooling across hundreds of services.
    • Rolled out a remote disk cache that cut CI build times 43%, saving an estimated 300+ build-hours per week across the org.
    • Built an event-driven SBOM compliance pipeline on AWS (ECR, EventBridge, Lambda, Inspector, Athena) that automates CVE scanning across containerized services.
    • Fixed org-wide AWS reliability issues: SQS/DLQ failures in the CodeArtifact replication pipeline, OIDC/IAM misconfigurations, and a Lambda concurrency race that only showed up under heavy event throughput.

A little about me

I spent the last two years at Arctic Wolf, where I owned the Bazel build platform for a monorepo shared by 500+ engineers and built event-driven security infrastructure on AWS. These days most of my time goes into AI systems: agent observability, multi-agent tools, and LLM-powered developer workflows. I'm doing my master's in CS (AI) at Georgia Tech part-time, and I'm looking for my next role.

Languages

  • Python
  • Go
  • TypeScript

Infra & Cloud

  • Bazel
  • AWS
  • Docker
  • Kubernetes
  • Terraform
  • PostgreSQL

Let's build something.

I'm looking for my next role, ideally working on developer platforms, infrastructure, or AI systems. Email is the fastest way to reach me.
