πŸš€ About Me

Ideas aren’t the hard partβ€”traceable 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 customersβ€”not 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).

Current Role Experience

πŸ”₯ Current Position

Full-Stack AI Product Engineer at Fireraven β€” MontrΓ©al, Canada (May 2025 – Present)
Security and compliance tooling for LLM-based agents: guardrails, runtime enforcement, red-teaming, auditing, policy-driven behavior.

  • Own features end-to-end with product and security/compliance stakeholders: clarify problems, draft and refine user stories and acceptance criteria, sequence work to roadmap and sprint goals, align engineering on scope and definition of done
  • Design and implement guardrails, policies, and runtime controls for LLM agentsβ€”APIs and customer-facing or internal tooling (Python/FastAPI, NestJS, React/Next.js, TypeScript, PostgreSQL)
  • Translate regulatory and risk requirements into shippable product behavior, audit trails, and operational workflows; facilitate delivery when blockers appear (re-scoping, phased releases)
  • Contribute to documentation (behavioral specs, release notes) for traceable, supportable launches; track quality and operational signals to inform backlog ordering
  • Apply GenAI/LLM patterns in production; participate in Agile events with globally distributed teams (Linux/Unix, Docker, GCP)
