Serving as AI technical advisor to Dialpad's Telephony Engineering division while building AI products hands-on. Currently developing MCP-based tooling for AI text and voice agents: agent authoring, integrations and adoption of existing agents, shared authentication and API contracts, and durable workflow state. This includes text and voice tests that evaluate agent behavior, latency and task completion.

In parallel, helping Dialpad's engineers adopt QualityLayer and use Claude Code and Codex effectively. This ongoing work covers context management for large codebases, reusable plan-implement-test-review workflows connected to CI/CD, playbooks, hands-on workshops, labs and pair programming.

I designed and built a self-service AWS platform for Data Science teams with little or no infrastructure-as-code experience. A team writes about 10 lines of Python and gets a deployable stack with full SDLC release cycle that already follows the governance rules. Networking, encryption, IAM and tagging are decided by the platform, not by each team.

New teams or AWS accounts are onboarded with one pull request. Waste prevention and cost control is built into the defaults: Data scientists don't need infrastructure skills.

• Construct library (AWS CDK, Python). Built a versioned catalog of about 20 hardened constructs for being used in data-science projects with ML context
• Governance as code
• Multi-account, multi-tenant
• Golden-path scaffolding
• CI/CD and supply chain. Built reusable GitHub Actions workflows
• Release engineering
• QA with e2e, contract testing and unit test coverage with each release candidate

• Design, development, and productive rollout of an Enterprise HR Copilot based on Microsoft Copilot Studio to automate internal HR processes

• Automation of HR processes and approval workflows with Microsoft Power Automate to reduce manual processing steps
• Development of realistic HR documents and response templates with Azure OpenAI, taking business requirements and consistent company policies into account
• Implementation of prompt strategies, knowledge management, and response optimization to improve response quality and user acceptance
• Close collaboration with business departments to analyze requirements and integrate the AI solution into existing company processes

• Claude Code subagents, MCP, Pydantic V2, pytest, bandit

• Designed and shipped 3 specialized agents that hand work down a line: a research agent writes a cited implementation spec, a coding agent builds the modular code and its tests, a review agent ranks findings by severity and applies the fixes. Each handoff is a structured document, so no stage depends on another agent's context window.

• Connected the research agent to an academic-research MCP server (Semantic Scholar, ArXiv, Hugging Face Hub, citation snowballing) so every reference traces to a tool result rather than the model. Gated commits behind ruff, mypy, pytest and bandit, required human sign-off before installs and commits, and persisted session state on disk so long runs survive a context reset.

• Planned and developed a CPU monitoring application for monitoring system performance and resource utilization.

• Developed the React frontend for presenting monitoring information in a clear and user-friendly interface.
• Integrated PostgreSQL for persistent storage and management of application data.

• Automated infrastructure provisioning and deployment using Terraform on AWS.
• Structured the application as a modern, maintainable system using REST-based communication between frontend and backend.
• Designed and developed a secure, scalable CPU monitoring architecture (cpu-watcher) with a dedicated collector application that streams monitoring data to the backend, reducing direct exposure of system resources.
• Designed a secure cloud infrastructure with the database isolated within a private network and OIDC-based authentication.
• Implemented Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and integrated version-controlled CI/CD pipelines to automate testing, infrastructure changes, and application deployments.
