I build reliable, observable systems at scale — enterprise platforms and production-grade open source tools alike.
Creator of DayTrail (60+ stars, 300+ downloads, Top 3 in AI Daily).
Depth over breadth.
Context first.
The best engineering comes from going deep on real problems with real stakes. Years shipping production systems under pressure showed me that elegant code is worthless if it can’t survive traffic, stakeholders, and 3 a.m. incidents.
Every system I build — whether an enterprise integration layer or an open-source AI tool — starts with the actual person who depends on it. Context first. Then technology.
Production systems at scale
Several years owning and delivering complex, mission-critical systems in high-stakes operational environments. That experience shaped how I think about reliability, observability, and building things that hold up under real pressure.
Enterprise systems connected through auditable event flow
Built a custom integration layer for an enterprise healthcare platform, replacing limited Mirth-based workflows with observable, retryable, auditable event delivery. It now handles 50+ business events and 20k+ real-time transactions/day across ERP, analytics, government, lab, pharmacy, CRM, and finance systems.
AI as controlled, auditable infrastructure
Not chat wrappers or demo magic. I build AI workflows around grounded data, structured tool calls, approval checkpoints, and audit trails — for healthcare and engineering environments where wrong answers have real consequences.
DayTrail is the flagship. It has earned 60+ stars and 300+ downloads — and just ranked Top 3 Silver in AI Daily on The Capital.
This is the work I’m most proud of. 63 public repositories. Published npm packages. Every tool started as a real friction I felt while shipping production systems or trying to stay in flow as an engineer. The same thinking that goes into reliable enterprise integrations shows up in the open source tools I build.
Quietly captures lightweight metadata from every app, browser tab, editor, terminal, and AI tool you use. Reconstructs your entire day with source-backed evidence. Tracks AI tool usage as first-class work. Gives you perfect daily/weekly summaries for standups, invoices, changelogs, and retrospectives. Nudges you back to focus. Recovers context after interruptions. All local, all private — never sends raw activity to the cloud.
- • “Where did my day actually go?” — answered with traceable evidence
- • Perfect source-backed summaries for standups, client updates, invoices, OSS changelogs
- • Makes AI tool usage (Claude, Cursor, Copilot, etc.) visible as real work
- • Gentle focus recovery after meetings, Slack, or context switches
- • No surveillance. Your data never leaves your machine by default.
- • Tauri + Rust backend — tiny, fast, native. ~9.8 MB Mac app vs typical Electron bloat
- • Obsessive privacy: screenshots off, clipboard ignored, browser URLs redacted
- • AI summaries are strictly grounded in captured local facts — no hallucinations about your day
- • Complete production-quality repo: app + browser extension + VS Code bridge + release engineering + docs + security policy
SSH automation, diagnostics, rsync, deployment helpers, and safety gates. Designed as a bridge so AI assistants can safely operate on remote infrastructure.
Enables AI assistants (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.) to perform real CRUD and workflow actions inside a project management platform via JSON-RPC tool calls.
Lock-file based single-instance execution to prevent duplicate cron jobs, batch processes, and automation scripts from racing in production.
Exposes OS-level SFSpeechRecognizer to desktop JS. Local, low-latency, privacy-first transcription without mandatory cloud roundtrips.
Health checks, alerting, and operational visibility tooling born directly from production troubleshooting and incident response patterns.
I build production systems, AI tooling, and open-source products for teams that need reliability.
Open to product engineering leadership, platform infrastructure, applied AI systems, and select collaborations around developer tools, healthcare SaaS, and local-first products.
