AI agents, engineered
for production.

Co-founder & Lead AI Engineer. I build agentic systems that orchestrate real-world tools — with typed control at the model boundary, observable runs, and evaluation wired in from the start.

Principles

How I build.

Three commitments that carry from prototype to production.

01

Built for production

What matters is uptime, latency, and user trust — not demo quality. At AskTuring I scaled the platform from 100 to 10,000+ concurrent users, and that bar shapes every design decision.

02

Verify, then ship

Model behavior is a hypothesis until it's tested. Evaluation suites, deterministic test fakes, and observable runs decide what goes out — my open-source agent framework ships with a 19-check verification harness.

03

Own the whole path

Provider APIs, tool schemas, orchestration, retrieval, and evaluation — the failure modes live at the boundaries, so I take responsibility across all of them.

  • Built agentic RAG with multi-layer memory (short-term, long-term, semantic) and time-aware retrieval — lifted contextual accuracy by 45%
  • Implemented a citation system with cross-source referencing across documents, web sources, and memory layers
  • Optimized chat hot paths via prepare-then-query pre-computation, parallelized resolution, and reduced database round-trips — cutting end-to-end latency
  • Built persistent user memory end-to-end: extraction service, schemas, CRUD APIs, and chat-flow integration
  • Refactored the LLM provider/model layer into modular configs and rolled out new model tiers behind feature flags
  • Built an internal evaluation benchmark and RAG suite management tooling — cut evaluation time by 99% and enabled rapid model iteration
  • Built image generation and editing pipelines with pixel-level control, integrated into agent workflows as first-class tools
  • Migrated the backend to async SQLAlchemy and restructured conversation, message-source, and repository layers for scale
