Engineer who finds the expensive manual gap and closes it with a system that stays in production. Built an AI classification pipeline that cut cost 100× at 95% accuracy, took an open data standard from empty repo to Ethereum Foundation-funded infrastructure adopted by Blockscout and Sourcify, and secured $50,000 across three independent grants. Comfortable owning a product end to end — spec, build, launch, and the documentation that lets it run without me.

Dev Tooling
Built a domain-specific agent toolchain: Python/pcbnew scripting, a retrieval server over vendor PDFs (SQLite FTS5 + embeddings), and a gated verification workflow that treats DRC as linting rather than an absolute gate.
End-to-end schematic → fab automationBundled RAG server over datasheets
Embedded firmware plus a TypeScript relay: ESP32-S3 e-ink client over WebSocket, lifecycle hook scripts, and session state fan-out across concurrent agent instances.
Implemented in-browser Merkle proof verification against decentralized transparency logs, shipped as a browser extension. Won Celestia’s Mammothan 2025.
