I spend most of my time building AI that actually makes it into production. Lately, that means wrangling LLMs and document-heavy pipelines into something stable, usually backed by Spring Boot and PostgreSQL. I'm not interested in AI as a bolt-on feature; I want it to be a core part of how the system functions.
I care about quiet, deliberate engineering. I'd rather lead by demoing a working solution than talking about one. To me, the people using the software deserve as much attention as the code itself.
