Enterprise delivery
Client work, generalized. Each one starts with the business problem and ends with a measured result.
Industrial clients needed high-volume operational data ingested, processed, and made visible in near real time. I ran discovery and workshops, designed the architecture, and delivered systems processing 50,000+ events per second.

Repetitive deployment work was consuming delivery time and creating room for inconsistency. I built LangChain-based agentic workflows for scope discovery, human intervention decisions, and final verification against internal knowledge, reducing deployment effort by more than 50%.

Four things I do repeatedly, across enterprise delivery and my own products.
I work with stakeholders to turn an open-ended problem into clear requirements, practical constraints, and a delivery plan.
I design Azure systems for high-volume operational data, from ingestion and processing to analytics and dashboards.
I apply predictive modelling and automation to specific business problems, and measure the results.
I build mobile and web products from the initial idea through design, implementation, release, and ongoing development.

About
I am a Toronto-based solutions engineer and product builder with seven years across industrial data science, Azure delivery, and entrepreneurship. I lead discovery, design architectures, and build production systems with the people who use them. Alongside client work, I develop my own products: Flare, a map-based social app; Durak, a cross-platform card game; and Harbourpoint Community, a resident portal.
Based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Open to FDE and Solutions Engineer roles, and custom development projects with teams anywhere. Get in touch.
