Backend & AI Systems
That Scale

I build high-performance backend and AI systems for data-intensive businesses — from prototype to production.

What I Do

Deep technical expertise across backend engineering, AI systems, and data infrastructure.

Backend Engineering

High-performance systems in Rust and Python. API design, system architecture, and production-grade software that companies can actually run and scale.

AI & Machine Learning

LLM integration, ML pipelines, and applied machine learning. Turning complex models into reliable production systems.

Data Pipelines

ETL processes, data architecture, and API design for data-intensive applications. From raw data to structured, usable systems.

How I Work

Deep technical expertise, not just consulting advice.

01

Prototype to Production

I take projects from early exploration all the way to production-ready systems. No handoffs, no gaps.

02

Built to Scale

Systems designed for real-world demands. Performance, reliability, and maintainability from day one.

03

Hands-On Engineering

I write code, not slide decks. Technical depth that goes beyond surface-level recommendations.

What I've Built

AI-powered document intelligence

ML system that automatically classifies and tags tables of contents from millions of books and journals, enabling large-scale digital archiving and content discovery.

Supplier & claims workflow platform

Backend platform processing claims in the nine-figure range — covering supplier onboarding, validation, payout workflows and financial reporting.

Real-time trading platform

Tech lead for a financial exchange handling high-throughput trading, liquidity mechanics and transaction validation. Designed analytics backend and core system architecture — from concept to production.
