Senior full-stack Rails engineer with 9+ years of commercial work for US and European clients. I put AI features into production SaaS.

Looking for senior IC work on a Rails product, ideally one with LLM or ML features on the roadmap. I can work through an EOR (Deel, Remote) or on a B2B contract, and I overlap with US Eastern mornings.

---

Senior full-stack Rails engineer, 9 years commercial. I ship AI features into production SaaS — not demos.

Most recent: Review Copilot, an AI review-analytics app live on the Shopify App Store, built and shipped solo end to end. Rails 8 backend, plus a DistilBERT multi-label classifier I fine-tuned via knowledge distillation and serve from a Python/FastAPI microservice, orchestrated through Sidekiq. Every recommendation cites the reviews behind it, with a verification pass that flags claims the underlying feedback doesn't support.

Before that: an AI-driven ABM platform (Rails + React) with LLM content-generation pipelines, marketplace products with payments and geolocation, and a legacy CoffeeScript → Turbo Frames migration.

Looking for senior IC work on a Rails product — ideally somewhere LLM or ML features are on the roadmap rather than bolted on.
