Summary

Builder-first engineer and founder who creates developer-facing value by shipping working integrations, clean reference implementations, and clear technical documentation—then closing the loop with feedback from real users.

Recent work includes production systems in TypeScript/Node.js and Python on GCP, event-driven integrations, Stripe onboarding and reporting flows, document ingestion + retrieval pipelines (Pinecone/Qdrant), and OpenWebUI-based workflows (OpenWebUI + Ollama + n8n).

Document-first execution: 500+ Loom engineering walkthroughs (Colorfull) • PRs required Loom videos for reviewability • internal Q/A documentation wins (Moveworks).
