Senior engineer, 13+ years in distributed systems. I build anti-financial-crime systems at a Nordic bank by day, and solo-ship agentic-AI products — and win hackathons — by night.
I care about AI that explains its reasoning, leaves an audit trail, and actually works in production.

🛡️ ARGUSMulti-agent compliance intelligence Microsoft Agents League — AI Skills Fest 2026 · Reasoning Agents track ↗
problem> Manual KYC/AML review doesn't scale, and unaudited AI decisions don't survive a regulator's audit. approach> Five specialist agents coordinated over A2A on Azure AI Foundry. Every finding is cited via Foundry IQ. Full audit trail. All decisions are explainable, reproducible, and regulatory-proof. impact> 100% auditable, citation-grounded regulatory lookups replacing manual screenings. |
🏰 BASTIONA governed institutional-agent fleet for continuous access review All Things Agentic Hackathon 2026 · Fortified Enterprise Fleet track ↗
problem> Access review is quarterly work performed on continuously changing permissions. Automating the scan isn't enough — an institutional agent must remember prior human decisions, survive asynchronous retries, prove why it acted, and remain unable to turn suspicious input into a privileged write. approach> Read-only IAM review against the GCP project that runs it, including its own service identities. Deterministic code detects and scores findings; Gemini explains and routes already-minimized risk. Three institutional agents, one durable investigation identity — no raw IAM binding crosses the model or human-notification boundary. impact> Humans receive counts and allowlisted categories, never bindings. 161 tests at 100% statement and branch coverage. |
📡 DRIFTGPU & AI infrastructure release intelligence problem> Raw changelogs are noisy, unstructured, and full of false positives. Teams miss critical AI infrastructure updates. approach> High-precision release aggregation. Raw data → dependency checks → bounded, technical summaries. Built with FastAPI + pgvector semantic deduplication. impact> Converts raw, noisy changelogs into actionable release intelligence. Code ↗ · Live app ↗ · API docs ↗ · Demo video ↗ · Devpost ↗ |
Durable incident memory for cold-started agents CockroachDB × AWS Hackathon 2026 — Build with Agentic Memory ↗
problem> Cold-started agents lose execution state. Multi-step workflows restart from zero, wasting compute and losing context. approach> Distributed checkpoint engine on CockroachDB. Restores 100% of execution state without pipeline restart. Mission-critical runtime guarantees. impact> Restores full execution state across distributed orchestration. |

Year-in-review intelligence for financial workflows Backblaze Generative Media · Devpost ↗
problem> Data-centric fintech teams want year-in-review insights. Existing tools are generic, not built for financial workflows. approach> Spotify Wrapped but for banking. Extracts transaction intelligence, generates insights, creates shareable year-end summaries. Code ↗ · Live app ↗ · API docs ↗ · Demo video ↗ · Devpost ↗ |

ARGUS: Compliance Infrastructure That Believes Financial Access Is a Human Right — techcommunity.microsoft.com · Guest post (July 2026)
Microsoft published my full write-up on the Educator Developer Blog, including how ARGUS coordinates five agents over A2A with citation-grounded risk scoring.

🧩 Agentic AI & Enterprise Intelligence I design AI systems with Azure AI Foundry, Foundry IQ, multi-agent orchestration, Agent-to-Agent (A2A) communication, and RAG with hybrid search — built to be explainable, grounded, and production-ready.
🏗️ Distributed Systems & Backend Architecture 13+ years building scalable platforms with Java (Spring Boot, Quarkus) and Python (FastAPI) — microservices, NoSQL, event-driven systems, and hybrid cloud across AWS, Azure, and OpenShift.
⚙️ AI Infrastructure, Performance & Compute I work at the infrastructure layer behind modern AI — GPU computing, NVIDIA CUDA, model serving, vector search, and performance engineering.
📡 Reliability, Observability & Platform Engineering I build resilient systems with Azure Functions, Service Bus, OpenTelemetry, Application Insights, and KQL — telemetry pipelines that hold up to enterprise-grade reliability and governance.
