Models & access
I combine model routing with infrastructure and access controls so different tools can use the model services they need.
All domains
OVERVIEW 02 / AI & AUTOMATION
Useful AI workflows, with controls around them.
I use AI to support research, runbooks, monitoring, and software development. My focus is the surrounding system: giving an agent the right tools, controlling what it can do, and checking the result. That includes MCP interfaces, model routing, access controls, and end-to-end QA workflows in my own environment.
THE ENGINEERING SCOPE
What I work on.
Practical capabilities, grounded in professional work and the projects below.
SYSTEMS VIEW01 — 04
AI & Automation: Connected through hands-on engineering.CONCEPTUAL ILLUSTRATION
Tool-connected agents
I build and integrate workflows that connect AI assistants to structured data, operational knowledge, and defined tools.
Operational guardrails
I develop controls around an operations agent, with attention to the boundary between interpreting a request and acting on a system.
Development & QA
I use AI alongside code review and end-to-end checks, treating generated changes as engineering work that still needs validation.
PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
