I’m a full-stack and backend engineer with 5+ years of experience who likes building the product, the services behind it, and the tests that show they work.

At Mekari, I worked on a Ruby-to-Go migration and fixed race conditions that cut system escalations by 90%. More recently, I’ve audited 800+ coding-agent benchmark tasks at AfterQuery (YC W25) and built open-source AI evaluation tools, including one that flagged defects in 5 of 25 SWE-bench Verified tasks.

I’m also interested in Rust and trading systems. I built an in-memory order book in Rust with a ~104 ns matching hot path, and used Python to research BTC funding-rate signals.

Open to full-stack, backend, Rust, AI engineering, and quant engineering or trading-systems roles.
