I turn ambiguous problemsinto shipped products.
Product engineer working across full stack, AI systems, automation, and production infrastructure. I work best with early-stage teams where the problem is clear but the technical path isn't.
// THE APPROACH
I build software by working backward from the problem.
My experience has taken me through AI sales systems, configurable commerce, GIS-powered real-estate workflows, production infrastructure, automation pipelines, and lead-generation systems.
The technologies change because the problems change. At BrickBytes, that meant learning QGIS and GeoJSON to work with township layouts. At GKWebTech, it meant debugging Dockerized production infrastructure and deployment systems. For client work, it has meant designing lightweight operational workflows instead of automatically building unnecessary backend complexity.
I work best in small teams where engineers have product context, communicate directly with founders or users, and own engineering problems from investigation to deployment.
// METHODOLOGY
How I Work
Own the problem
I prefer understanding the problem, constraints, and business context before treating implementation as a list of tickets.
Learn the missing domain
I have entered unfamiliar areas including GIS, production infrastructure, AI agent workflows, and marketing technology when the product required it.
Ship, observe, iterate
I prefer getting a functional system into use, finding real failure modes, and improving from evidence.
Use AI as engineering leverage
I use AI tools aggressively for research, implementation, debugging, and iteration while retaining responsibility for architecture, validation, testing, and the final system.
// TRACK RECORD
Engineering Experience
Full Stack Developer / Automation Engineer
Managing VPS server stability, reversing production downtime incidents, and orchestrating content publishing pipelines across multiple applications.
Architected Dockerized deployments using Dokploy and Traefik on VPS nodes, set up auto-backups, built n8n/Gemini multilingual content workflows, and recovered a production database during an active incident.
Docker deployments, automated monitoring scripts, production backup/restore routines, and pipeline orchestration.
Software Development Engineer
Translating static paper layout blueprints into browser-renderable, interactive plot vector meshes for real-estate visualization.
Traced plot outlines in QGIS to metadata schemas, structured polygon features to GeoJSON format, researched vector canvas overlays, and built Mapbox GL JS prototypes.
GIS coordinates, polygon manipulation, and browser WebGL rendering.
Prompt Engineer
Steering customer-facing voice and text AI agents to respond within strict brand boundaries and return structured data fields.
Engineered prompt behavior sets, designed evaluation cycles for LLM tool selection, and configured strict JSON structure parsers.
Conversational workflows, prompt behavior architectures, and JSON output parsing.
Product & Client Engineering
Delivering custom lead capture systems and integrations for businesses within strict runtime hosting limits.
Built Bliniq lead capture forms targeting GoDaddy shared static hosting, routing leads to Google Sheets via Google Apps Script webhooks, and integrated Google Tag Manager (GTM)/Google Ads conversion tracking.
Static builds, webhook triggers, analytics integration, and backend integrations without Node runtimes.
// CASE STUDIES
Selected Systems I've Built
Real products and engineering problems across AI, commerce, infrastructure, GIS, automation, and client systems.
MailPilot AI
AI-assisted email interface enabling natural language search, automated email triaging, and real-time state synchronization using Gemini APIs, CopilotKit function calling, and Server-Sent Events.
Configurable Commerce & Pricing Engine
Engineered a configurable luxury commerce system supporting 650+ products and 6,500+ media assets, featuring dynamic formula-driven metal pricing and server-side checkout validations.
Meera — AI Sales Assistant
An end-to-end conversational sales assistant that understands buying intent, gathers requirements, and triggers structured cart actions using a tool-driven architecture.
BrickBytes — GIS-Powered PropTech
Worked on a PropTech workflow that converts township layout plans into structured GeoJSON plot data for interactive browser-based real-estate visualization.
Bliniq — Medical Lead Capture System
Built and deployed a medical campaign landing system with a conditional multi-step consultation form, serverless lead capture, Google Sheets integration, and conversion tracking.
Production Infrastructure & Recovery
Deployed and maintained Dockerized production services using Dokploy, Traefik, and Nginx. Managed VPS hosting, custom DNS configurations, and SSL certificate renewals.
Multilingual SEO Automation Pipeline
Automated content generator using Gemini AI and n8n pipelines to write, translate into multiple languages, optimize, and publish cross-language blogs.
