Dev Intelligence Platform
Multi-tenant, GitHub-based developer-intelligence platform surfacing PR bottlenecks, review health, and CI reliability from deterministic flow metrics — with classical ML for revert-risk and GenAI confined to grounded narration and clustering.
FieldOps Copilot
AI triage over NYC 311 service requests: a daily Socrata feed flows through embedding-based dedup (pgvector), a calibrated cascade classifier (cheap Groq tier → OpenAI) with a confidence gate, and a single LangGraph agent loop on only the ambiguous tail — which drafts human-gated work orders. An LLM-as-judge benchmarks the agent against a baseline with stated CIs.
Blitz — answers to your NFL questions
Agentic RAG over NFL play-by-play and roster data — a LangGraph router/retrieval/generation/reflection graph backed by ChromaDB, with a model-agnostic chat layer(Anthropic/OpenAI/Groq. Every LLM call is OTel-traced end-to-end.
Grounded RAG over Wikipedia articles
Grounded RAG over 1K Wikipedia articles — hybrid dense+sparse retrieval, cross-encoder reranking, cited generation, and an explicit abstain path when evidence is weak. Every answer is grounded, scored, ACL-aware, and designed to scale toward 10M docs by swapping infrastructure.
Experience
Principal Developer / Tech Lead — PinnacleCode · TOCA Football

Sandboxing Your AI Agents: Docker's Cage for Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor
Docker Sandboxes run Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor inside real microVMs. Here's why that's what finally let me leave agents running unattended.

When Classical ML Beats LLM
LLMs are not always the right tool. A practical guide to the cases where a gradient boosted tree, a logistic regression, or a simple anomaly detector will outperform a large language model—and cost a fraction of the price.

How I'd Design a Multi-Tenant Booking Platform From Scratch
A general pattern for multi-tenant booking platforms: pre-materialized slots, pessimistic locking at checkout, Stripe webhooks as the source of truth, and an append-only credit ledger, distilled from a real production system.

Redis for Everything: A Fun Exercise in Building an E-commerce System
A thought experiment in pushing Redis past caching — using it for carts, inventory locks, search, feeds, sessions, and rate limits to see how far its lesser-known data structures actually stretch.
