Ideas arenβt the hard partβtraceable behavior is. I ship full-stack AI that turns policy and risk into guardrails, APIs, and audit-ready controls for LLM agents in production.
I bridge structural engineering, software, and AI security. At Fireraven I work as a full-stack AI product engineer on guardrails, compliance, and secure deployment of LLM agents for enterprises: product-scoped work with PM, security, compliance, and customersβnot a generic backend-only role. 6+ years of cross-functional, Agile-informed delivery: user stories, acceptance criteria, backlog alignment, sprint goals, and turning regulatory and risk needs into production features. Background spans BIM and large-project delivery, construction-tech products, and R&D that cut engineering time by 75% (Sirve) and design time by 40% on critical paths (Tensacon).
