  • Rebuilt the AI agentic ordering system from scratch, improving performance and reducing error rates across deployments.
  • Built an automated restaurant onboarding pipeline (Google Places + SERP scraping + LLM-based parsing) replacing manual per-restaurant site builds, contributing to a 6–10% revenue lift via faster customer activation.
  • Migrated from a Python/JavaScript-based backend to a Go/Python stack, enhancing scalability and reliability.

  • Built and backed ventures across dating, sports, healthcare, and events, including lunr, Chalk, Mostest (100,000+ vendors), and Bilateral Stimulation (35,000+ therapists).
Co-founder & Founding Engineer – Lunr (Dec 2025 – Present) | NYC, US
  • Designed and built a two-fold matchmaking pipeline: a deterministic scoring engine (cosine similarity, stance deviation, custom theory-driven signals) feeding an LLM evaluator, with outcomes persisted as training data for next-gen ML scorers.
  • Architected multi-model LLM orchestration with per-workload cost-aware routing across Claude (Sonnet/Haiku), Gemini 2.5 Flash, and Voyage embeddings; designed a cost-reduction playbook (prompt caching, batch API, sliding window) for AI-spend-dominated economics.
  • Built embeddings and vector search infra on pgvector (HNSW) over a 4-type Voyage composite; Go API + Redis Streams + Python brain stack with cron-driven pipelines and PostHog feature flags for cohort and A/B control.
Founding Engineer – Authentic (Aug 2025 – March 2026) | Seoul, SK | NYC, US
  • Owned architecture of the core backend, designing secure ephemeral content flows and cache-backed consistency mechanisms that reduced API latency and enabled encrypted sharing at scale.
  • Shipped cross-platform mobile app from beta through iOS and Android store launches, owning the full deployment and monitoring pipeline.
AI Research Engineer Intern – h011yw00d (May 2025 – Aug 2025) | SF, US
  • Designed distributed computing layer for video generative AI, decoupling from monolithic stack for production-scale deployment.
  • Launched as World-Mini app to 10M+ impressions and 60k users in first month; currently ranked top 10 of 5,000 apps.
  • Shipped full-stack video platform handling 900+ concurrent jobs, reducing DB writes 70% and achieving 3× faster load times.
  • Owned deployment and reliability of 40+ production microservices, maintaining 99.9% uptime through rate-limiting, circuit breakers, and monitoring.
AI Product Engineer – YourMove.AI (May 2025 – June 2025) | NYC, US
Software Engineer – RadiusAI (Jan 2024 – Aug 2024) | Seattle, US | BLR, IN
  • Migrated to Rust from Python implementing a Kafka-based monitoring service to meet latency SLAs, achieving 30% lower p99 under production load.
  • Led cart simulator optimization with parallelism, enabling 2× faster checkouts across deployments.
  • Drove automation of database operations via AWS Lambda/Prefect, maintaining 99%+ data consistency across distributed systems.
  • Built Rust-native anomaly detection tooling and Gradio dashboards, reducing annotation errors 30% and improving ML training accuracy.
Founding Engineer – StackIt (Superjoin) (June 2023 – Dec 2023) | BLR, IN
  • Owned infrastructure from day one, shipping a Docker/Kubernetes microservices ecosystem with 99.9% uptime; integrated Chargebee, Hubspot, and Google Ads to drive early user acquisition.
  • Engineered interactive data preview in React with filtering, joins, and lookups—improving visualization by 40% and cutting import errors.
  • Productionized RAG pipelines (LangChain, LlamaIndex) for natural language to SQL conversion, achieving 90% query accuracy and reducing user churn.
Software Developer Intern – Squbix Digital (June 2022 – Dec 2022) | BBI, IN
  • Optimized the DID pallet in Rust & Substrate on Polkadot, implementing efficient on-chain storage patterns; migrated the JS SDK to TypeScript to improve type safety.
  • Developed backend APIs in Node.js and implemented offline storage and push notifications across React Native apps to improve mobile reliability.
  • Built a Chrome extension for wallet transactions to streamline legacy flows, using Mocha for unit testing.
