How I help product & platform teams
I work with product and platform teams on short, focused engagements to ship AI-powered features, stabilize distributed systems, and make cloud infrastructure easier to operate. Most projects are 3–12 weeks and shaped around a concrete outcome: a working MVP, a hardening pass, or a clear architecture you can execute with your own team.
AI Integration & GenAI Product Features
LLM-backed search, assistants, and editors you can actually ship
Design and implement practical AI features: image and content workflows, copilots, and “smart” search or recommendations. We pick the right models (local or cloud), define latency and cost policies, and set up eval harnesses and telemetry so you can iterate safely.

Event-Driven Systems & Microservices
Service boundaries, messaging patterns, and resilient workflows
Help you move off a monolith or untangle a fragile services setup. We clarify domains and service boundaries, apply CQRS/outbox where it fits, and design idempotent, observable workflows over Kafka, RabbitMQ, or SQS/SNS.

AWS & Cloud Architecture
Pragmatic designs for data-heavy and AI-driven products
Architecture reviews and greenfield designs on AWS: from RDS / Aurora and S3-based data lakes to containerized services and serverless backends. The focus is on secure, well-instrumented systems that your team can own—rather than elaborate diagrams nobody can maintain.

Data, Reporting & Analytics Pipelines
Usage, billing, and product analytics you can trust
Design or harden ETL and reporting flows so stakeholders can rely on the numbers. This includes data contracts, late-event handling, report SLAs, and troubleshooting paths across Kinesis, Kafka, Glue, dbt, warehouses, or Athena/Redshift.

DevOps, CI/CD & Observability
Short feedback loops and safe, predictable releases
Review and improve your delivery pipeline: trunk-based flow, branch policies, preview environments, and guardrails around testing. We also tighten logging, metrics, and tracing so incidents are easier to spot and debug.

Architecture Reviews & Mentoring
Targeted help for tech leads and senior ICs
Lightweight architecture reviews, design doc coaching, and mentoring for engineers stepping into staff/lead roles. Typical engagements include a series of deep-dive sessions, written recommendations, and pairing on one or two critical designs.
