Applied AI Engineer · production LLM systems

I ship production AI products — not notebooks.

I build AI that moves real money: an AI store builder that generated $250M+ for tens of thousands of merchants, and pipelines that turn design into live storefronts. RAG, agents, local models, evals — the system around the model is the product.

Atlas
AI Engineer · founding team (equity)

Atlas

Sep 2025 – May 2026

Built Atlas’s AI store & theme builder and the internal AI tooling behind it — the system that turns a single product link into a complete, conversion-optimized Shopify store (layout, copy, images) in under two minutes.

Furet

Apr 2026 – May 2026

Built from scratch: a state-of-the-art AI ads-library winning-product finder. Furet scans millions of Meta ads, runs the dozen checks a pro researcher would do by hand, and surfaces only the products worth a test budget — each with a transparent AI verdict, not a black box.

Cabot Creamery
AI Engineer · design-to-storefront pipeline

Cabot Creamery

Contract · before Atlas

Streamlined an AI pipeline that turns Figma designs into live Shopify store pages for Cabot Creamery — a billion-dollar, farmer-owned dairy cooperative and Certified B Corp — collapsing a slow manual design-to-storefront handoff into an automated flow.

Five things that run.

Beyond the day job — each opens its own page with a live, in-browser demo and a technical teardown of the messy middle.

Long-form build walkthrough

A recorded, end-to-end build session — thinking out loud through the architecture, the tradeoffs, and the live implementation.

  • Frames the system design before any code — data flow, model choices, and where the hard parts actually hide.
  • Live implementation: building the pipeline step by step and debugging in real time.
  • Narrated decisions — why this approach over the obvious one, and what I’d change at scale.

Opinions, with the scars to back them.

Short, pointed takes on the tradeoffs that decide whether an AI product actually works.
