FORWARD DEPLOYEDENGINEER. I STAYUNTIL IT WORKS

I sit with the people who have the problem, cut it down to what matters, and ship it to production myself: frontend, backend, the AI in the middle, and the deploy.

How I work

Close to the problem, all the way to production.

Most AI projects stall between the demo and the people who need it. I work in that gap: I learn how the job gets done today, find the part worth building, and ship it with the constraints that are actually there.

“A demo proves it can work. Production proves it does.”

Notes from shipping

AI SystemsMAR 2025

RAG without the theater

Chunking, search, and citations beat demo polish. Notes on document QA that still works after the meeting ends.

Why we build what we build

Name the problem before the stack debate runs away. How I try to keep intent and architecture pointed at the same thing.

What to build is still the hard part

Lots of noise about tools and prompts. Almost none about which problem deserves your month. Where I am putting attention.

Claude and agentic building

Tight loops with Claude over your repo and terminal. What helped, what lied, what I still own.
