Hello, I'm Michael.

I have over 10 years of experience architecting and building high-throughput, distributed systems across fintech, eCommerce, and government sectors. My technical baseline is rooted in TypeScript and Node.js, with further experience in Python and Go, coupled with building resilient cloud infrastructure using AWS, Docker, and Terraform. I specialize in helping teams build highly scalable, event-driven serverless environments.

I design and integrate production-grade GenAI tools and agentic workflows that solve complex organizational problems without compromising system safety. From orchestrating enterprise-level RAG frameworks using vector similarity search to building multi-step NLP pipelines and Intelligent Document Processing (IDP) platforms, I treat language models as core, deterministic components of modern software architecture.

With a strong foundation in interaction design dating back over a decade to art college, I bridge the gap between technical execution and product strategy. I view systems engineering through a human-centric lens, ensuring lean UX, agile execution, and clean user outcomes drive my architectural decisions. For me, systems are only as good as the human problems they successfully solve.
