Hands-on at Staff level

I own Yalo's core conversational runtime, evolved from a deterministic Lua engine into a hybrid platform where flows and LLM agents share a session. It processes 13M+ messages per day at 99.8%+ delivery.

My work sits between architecture and implementation: shaping technical direction, building the hard parts, writing RFCs, mentoring engineers, and sharing production ownership.

Current focus

Agent Builder capabilities for custom tools, knowledge bases, multi-agent orchestration, and managed retrieval using OpenAI File Search and vector stores.

git log --career
