About

Customer-facing Solutions Engineer with a strong backend engineering foundation and extensive experience in early-stage, 0→1 startups. I specialize in translating complex technical systems into clear demos, proofs-of-concept, and implementation plans that drive customer adoption and time-to-value. I’ve held founding and early technical roles across pre-sales, partner engineering, and product support, working directly with customers, sales, product, and engineering teams. My core expertise is in REST APIs, OpenAPI-driven platforms, and integration-heavy systems, and I am platform- and language-agnostic by design. I have built and delivered AI-powered demos and PoCs using modern LLM tooling, working with platforms and models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Mistral, and Google Gemini. I have used tools like Claude Code and other AI-assisted workflows to accelerate prototyping, automation, and customer-specific implementations.
