About

I studied mechanical engineering and wrote my first Python script to automate data collection for my thesis. I've been building software ever since: more than eight years now, almost all of it remote, for teams in the US, Canada and Australia.

Today I'm an AI engineer at O.xyz, working on an enterprise AI IDE. Alongside that I take on a few consulting projects at a time: AI systems that cost too much, agents that need to get faster or multilingual, and products that need to ship.

I also make videos about the work: build logs, plain explanations of AI engineering, and what working from wherever the wifi works actually looks like.
