Years of building for real clients, now channelled into AI. I'm a full-stack engineer building an AI chatbot product family: retrieval pipelines, LLM backends, the APIs that serve them, and the crafted interfaces people actually use.

WhatIdo

01

AI Product Engineering

LLM-powered applications end-to-end: retrieval-augmented generation, embeddings and vector search, prompt systems, and the products built on top of them. Turning models into reliable, shippable features.

02

Full-Stack Development

Python backends, REST APIs and data models on PostgreSQL, wired to React & Next.js front-ends. Containerised with Docker, shipped through CI/CD. I build features end-to-end, from data models and APIs to the UI people actually use.

Web Craft & Interaction

High-end, animated front-ends with an agency-trained eye for detail. Motion, performance and design systems: the layer that makes a product feel considered instead of generic.

(About)

FromcustomWordPressbuildstoproductionAI.

I learned the craft building custom sites for demanding clients, the kind of work that teaches you detail, deadlines and how to talk to people who don't speak “developer.” That foundation now powers something bigger: building AI products end-to-end. Same obsessive energy I once poured into tens of thousands of hours of gaming, now aimed at shipping software.
