Consulting
Senior engineering help for systems that touch the physical world.
I help teams ship systems that touch the physical world: sensor pipelines, the infrastructure around them, and the agentic software that now sits on top. Senior, hands-on, and used to owning the whole stack.
Why me
I take on a small number of engagements a year. The work I'm best at sits where hardware meets software: getting trustworthy data off a device, building the distributed systems and AWS infrastructure around it, and putting agentic software on top with verification that actually bites. I've done this as an owner at Amazon, as a sole founder shipping an AI product, and now inside a medical-device company.
What I do
Sensor data and physical-AI infrastructure
From on-device acquisition to the cloud: signal pipelines, storage you can trust after the session, observability, and the study or fleet tooling that sits on top. Wearables, ultrasound and biopotential systems are home ground.
Distributed systems on AWS
Event-driven services, real-time data delivery, and the operational work that keeps them boring: CI/CD, infrastructure as code, cost, and on-call reality. Four years of this at Amazon scale.
Agentic pipelines with real verification
Multi-agent workflows with review gates, specs as the source of truth, and test harnesses that check what the agents did. I run my own orchestrator in production and can design, audit or build yours.
Zero-to-one product engineering
A mobile or web product from a blank repo to a beta in the field: React Native, Next.js, Python backends, LLM features done properly. I shipped Selver this way, alone.
How we can work
Advisory
A few hours a month. Architecture reviews, hiring help, a second opinion before a big decision.
Embedded
One to three days a week inside your team for a quarter, owning a system end to end.
Build
A scoped deliverable with a fixed end: a pipeline, a platform, a proof of concept that has to be real.
How I work
- I write code and own outcomes; I'm not a slide-deck consultant.
- Everything I ship is observable, tested and documented, because I'll be the one woken up by it otherwise.
- Clear scope, clear price, honest about what I don't know.
