Here's a selection of cool things I've worked on.
I run the engineering team, turning browser agents into reliable infrastructure for agentic commerce.
Rye head-hunted me (through this site!) at the beginning of 2024 as a Staff Engineer. A few months later we had scaled the team, and I was promoted to Head of Engineering to drive execution and lead the engineering team.
Rye makes eCommerce APIs to sell anything on the internet, sync product data and programmatically place orders. An integration with Rye enables businesses to instantly sell a billion different product SKUs.
I built Crimson Education's genAI function from zero to one, and while there we achieved unicorn status.
At the beginning of 2023 I moved out of Crimson Global Academy to build and manage new AI team inside the parent organization. My team was responsible for a number of high impact features which cut cost and improved quality throughout Crimson's entire consulting business. I worked closely with our CPO to define the team's roadmap and priorities.
Our releases form the backbone of Crimson's AI strategy, and are a key part of the upcoming Flamingo App SaaS offering's value proposition.
After leaving I continued to work in a fractional capacity, to provide ongoing advice and guidance to the team.
AdmitYogi Essays is an AI-powered essay review service which improves equity in the college admissions process by democratizing access to essay review.
I was brought on to this project to build out the initial MVP and prove the product concept. Managing one other engineer and working closely with our product manager, we released a beta build after a couple months of development.
AdmitYogi Essays leverages a multi-faceted AI pipeline to produce essay reviews that are near identical to human reviews. College admissions essays vary across many different dimensions, making it impossible to apply a "one size fits all" model.
Crimson Global Academy is the world's first fully online global high school, and offers a differentiated education experience through its in-house technology platform.
I managed Crimson Global Academy's software engineering team, and owned the wider organization's DevOps platform and internal tooling. In my first couple of months on the job I slashed cloud spend by 34%, and achieved a massive 87% speedup to our CI/CD pipelines.
My team rolled out a brand new web portal for parents, an online platform for collecting student and teacher feedback, an asynchronous video review system, and a student achievements system called 'CGA Badges.' I also provided technical advice to our Revision Village team during their initial build, and helped perform technical due diligence on a number of M&As.
Deltaschool offers an "AI Fellowship" program for audacious high school students. The AI Fellowship teaches a range of machine learning topics over an intensive 4-week program.
I'm AI Faculty at Deltaschool, and gave advice on the program's structure during its formative months. Since Deltaschool got off the ground, I've continued to participate by teaching workshops such as "Advanced Generative AI: Intro to GANs."
I was the first hire at Kwotimation, a SaaS company that built quoting software for tilers. I supported their seed capital raise, built the product from nothing, and hired a team.
I helped Kwotimation escape development hell. Kwotimation had previously worked with two other development teams that had failed to deliver a working product for them.
Over the next couple of months, I scoped out the work required to build the MVP of their product and then executed on an aggressive development roadmap. We rebuilt the SaaS application's front-end and built out substantial amounts of new functionality.
