I build AI platforms, enterprise SaaS, and cloud-native distributed systems. I have 20+ years of software engineering experience across fintech, retail, gaming, ERP, solar, and healthcare — from founding SaaS businesses to modernizing platforms for international companies.
My current focus is LLM-powered applications, AI agents, multi-agent orchestration, and RAG, backed by software architecture, backend engineering, and reliable delivery practices.
- Software architecture: Domain-Driven Design (DDD), Hexagonal Architecture (Ports and Adapters), system design, microservices, API design, and event-driven systems.
- AI engineering: LLM applications, agent orchestration, data pipelines, and Spec-Driven Development (SDD).
- Platform engineering: legacy modernization, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, observability, automated testing, and cost optimization.
- Technical leadership: solution design, code reviews, mentoring, and collaboration with product, business, and engineering stakeholders.
- The Hackett Group — Senior AI Software Architect: Architecting platforms that generate business systems and dashboards from natural language, with LLMs, AI agents, and scalable data pipelines.
- Quilt Software / PosNation — Senior Software Architect: Modernized Bottle POS and built an Electron desktop application with auto-updates and silent printing for retail operations.
- MPC — Mobile Price Card — Senior Software Engineer: Applied DDD in Laravel projects, built a multi-tenant user management system with RBAC, and delivered event-driven retail updates with Socket.IO.
- Regal Rexnord — Tech Lead: Modernized mission-critical PHP and CodeIgniter applications, supported by automated tests and zero-downtime deployments.
- SciPlay / Amber Studio — Senior Backend Game Engineer: Built Jackpot Party's referral system and a platform that lets business teams configure deployments and game rewards.
- BairesDev — Senior Software Engineer & IT Mentor: Delivered solar SaaS solutions for ADT Solar / Sunpro and Bankrate fintech platforms for Red Ventures. Mentored 10+ teams and provided technical guidance to a team of 11 nationalities.
- Mahout ERP Cloud — Co-Founder, CEO & CTO: Built and scaled an ERP SaaS platform covering finance, POS, inventory, CRM, BI, and e-commerce, with infrastructure on AWS and GCP.
