AI Systems Engineer translating business and technical requirements into reliable AI and cloud-native solutions.
I work across stakeholder-facing solution design, AI engineering, cloud and backend systems, and the production controls needed to deliver technology reliably.
AI-enabled learning platform with contextual tutor responses
07/2025 – Present
PRODUCT
Built LearnShift.io after running Hackergee, whose online course drew 3,500+ registrations. The platform combines course delivery, learner progress, playback, and contextual AI tutoring.
OWNERSHIP
Owned backend AI services and REST APIs for courses, users, playback, embeddings, retrieval, and LLM workflows.
ARCHITECTURE
Designed retrieval around learner progress and course state to keep AI responses grounded in selected material.
RELIABILITY
Used structured prompts, response checks, retries, and fallbacks to improve consistency.
DEPLOYMENT
Automated GitHub-based deployments through Vercel and Render.
AI product builder turning ideas into scoped, buildable software
PRODUCT R&D · PAUSED
PRODUCT
Built an AI product-creation system that turns rough ideas into scoped plans, architecture, and implementation-ready outputs.
OWNERSHIP
Owned idea intake, scope clarification, structured generation, editing, and build orchestration.
ARCHITECTURE
Designed a pipeline from user intent through product definition, complexity assessment, and implementation output.
RELIABILITY
Added structured prompts, validation, retries, and workflow controls to stabilize generation.
DELIVERY
Iterated as a web product to test and refine the generation workflow.
Core flow: idea → scope → architecture → build
