Self-directed systems & AI engineer, available for contract (or the right full-time role). In the last year — solo, mostly from scratch — I've built: an LLM training engine and active research project (AGPT); an AI agent framework that autonomously runs my own production infrastructure (copious); a semantic-memory / RAG library (memo); a C11 YAML 1.2 parser that passes all 308 test-suite cases and outperforms every other compliant parser on real-world benchmarks (YAM); and a serialization format about half the size of JSON that parses ~3x faster (C0DATA). I also maintain Ruby Facets (since 2005). I go from model internals to production ops, and I ship — every link on the portfolio is real, running code. Research is my first love — AGPT above is my own line of it — and the work I'd most gladly relocate for, though I'm every bit as happy shipping production systems. The site also has an AI assistant you can talk to; she'll take a brief and send it to me.
