Principal Software Engineer at Code District  ·  6+ Years Building Full-Stack Products

I'm an AI-Enabled Principal Software Engineer with 6+ years of experience across full-stack, cloud, and AI-enabled systems. At Code District, I led the company-wide shift to an AI-first engineering culture — building the estimation engine, discovery pipeline, and PR review system the whole team now runs on.

I operate at the intersection of technical execution and client-facing strategy: I run pre-sales calls, turn vague requirements into architecture proposals, and own production infrastructure across client projects on AWS.

• 🤖 Built an AI estimation engine on Claude/Gemini — input client requirements, output PRD + architecture + tech stack in minutes
• 🔁 Built a Claude + Bitbucket MCP PR review system; cut senior review time by ~30%
• 🏗️ Reduced post-discovery call session turnaround from 1–2 days to under an hour using LLM-powered automations
• 📦 Helped ship an MVP that secured six-figure funding within 3 months
• ⏱️ Saved 250+ hours/year of manual reporting via Tableau + Zapier pipelines

• 🚀 Leading AI-first SDLC adoption across Code District (estimation, discovery, dev, review)
• 🤖 Building and iterating on LLM/MCP-based agentic workflows in production
• 🔭 Involved in pre-sales: system design docs, architecture proposals, resource estimates
• 🌱 Going deeper on AWS architecture and agentic system design
• 💬 Ask me about MCP servers, Claude Code, Hasura permissions, or NestJS DI

Most of my recent work is in private client repos — here are anonymized highlights:

• AI Estimation Engine (2025) — Built on Gemini: feed in client requirements, get back a PRD, feature breakdown, tech stack, and architecture diagram. Used company-wide for pre-sales and scoping.
• Agentic PR Review System (2025) — Claude + Bitbucket MCP webhook pipeline; reviews diffs line-by-line, flags testing gaps, and auto-updates the project context store on merge. Cut senior review time ~30%.
• Funded MVP (Health-tech, 2024) — Shipped end-to-end; secured six-figure seed funding within 3 months. NestJS · Hasura · Next.js · AWS Amplify + Cognito.
• HIPAA Video Platform (2022) — Built cloud infra and compliant video platform for clinical psychedelic drug trials. NestJS · React.js · AWS S3 · MediaConvert · RDS.
• Internal-ops automation — Tableau dashboards + Zapier pipelines that removed 250+ hours/year of manual reporting.
