Software Engineer · AI Agent Infrastructure & Production Platforms

I build the infrastructure coding agents ship through, and run the production platforms they ship to.

As Head of Engineering, I lead an engineering team running the reservations, payments, and Linux fleet a specialty-travel business depends on. My current project is thirdshift, an open-source software factory in Rust that takes GitHub issues through implementation, review, and CI to pull requests.

4+ years of production ownership Rust orchestration across six agent harnesses Review and CI gates

Selected Outcomes

4+ yrs Continuously maintaining the production platform a 40-person travel company runs on every day.

4 Live platform migrations shipped with no outage staff or customers noticed: PHP 5.6 → 8, MySQL 5.7 → 8.4 LTS, CentOS → Rocky 9, and a payment-processor migration.

3 Internal AI-infrastructure systems designed and built: multi-tenant AI assistants on Docker, a scoped-credential agent-orchestration VM, and a FastAPI/Next.js platform built to replace a SaaS vendor.

PCI Card processors integrated end-to-end and NACHA-formatted ACH bank submission, with bank-account encryption - current PCI posture throughout.

Current work: thirdshift

A deterministic Rust orchestrator coordinates coding agents across isolated Git worktrees, dependency-aware parallel tickets, standards and spec reviews, CI checks, and bounded repair loops. Failed runs preserve their work for continuation; merging is an explicit option.

Fresh eyes beat a second family 183 replayed code reviews: testing where a second review helps, separating fresh context from model-family differences, and publishing the limitations.
