Forward-Deployed Engineer · I take an unclear idea, workflow, or dataset to a first useful product, then improve it with real use.

I work best when a team has a useful but unclear starting point: a new product, a messy workflow, a decision that needs better data, or an agent system that has to work safely with real people and tools.

Selected work:

- Real Estate Leasing Engine — the specific workflow running on Mobius: a measurable outreach → inquiry → tour → application → signed lease path.

- Mobius Frameworks — a meta-architecture I built for deploying agents, modules, and workspaces. It gives visibility into what each agent does, scoped permissions, approval gates, and operating cadences.

- Energy Scout — a homeowner solar/battery decision tool built from utility-rate and incentive data: https://energyscout.org

- Bitcoin ML — market-signal research using walk-forward and Monte Carlo validation: https://bitcoinmachinelearning.com

I'm looking for to work with mission driven engaged people who are doing interesting things that have a positive impact on the world. Roles shape might include Product Engineer, Applied AI Engineer, Agent product development, Business Operations/analyst, or selective Forward-Deployed Engineer work with teams building great products and processes.
