AI Sales Teammate

• Took Halvday from concept to live product in five months, securing three design partners and two paid engagements, including PlanRadar.
• Built and shipped the product end-to-end as a solo founder, spanning product strategy, frontend, backend, agent orchestration, infrastructure, design, compliance and go-to-market.

Built and scaled a high-performance enterprise API for real-time address validation and data quality with sub-second latency and 99.9 % availability.

Designed and integrated the solution into e-commerce, checkout, and logistics processes of leading European companies. Reduced delivery errors and shipping costs through automated data correction and precise data validation.

End-to-end responsibility for product strategy, technical architecture, software development, enterprise customers, operations, and GDPR-compliant data processing. Combined AI-native engineering workflows, Python, SQL, API integration, data quality, and workflow automation.
