Professional Summary

Technical founder and full-stack AI builder with seven years inside the risk and infrastructure stack of top-tier financial institutions (Goldman Sachs, BlackRock, DTCC) and a Quantitative Finance degree. Currently running TipsData on a 15-agent virtual operations stack built on the paperclip.ing runtime — agents personifying The Office cast covering CEO/CFO/CMO, sales (inbound and outbound), data and security engineering, QA, financial modelling, design, technical writing, and social — driving a real business over a 1.2B-record cloud-native data platform. Operates idea-to-production in two weeks, speaks the language of risk and PnL, and ships directly to customers without intermediaries.

Work Experience

TipsData / Database Emailer — Jan 2026 – Present

Founder / CEO / CTO — Multi-Agent Operations on a 1.2B-Record Data Platform

  • Run the business on a 15-agent virtual operations stack built on the paperclip.ing skill/plugin runtime — agents personifying The Office cast covering CEO, CFO, CMO, outbound sales, relationship sales, customer support, data engineering, security engineering, QA, financial modelling, design, technical writing, and social analytics
  • Designed the skill and plugin surface each agent uses — repo and dataset exports, ClickHouse / Postgres queries, email-delivery actions, CRM hooks — so agents act on real systems instead of just chatting
  • Operate paperclip self-hosted on a private VPS with isolated workspaces and instances per agent driven over its HTTP API; iteration cadence is hours, not sprints
  • Replatformed the legacy on-prem LAMP stack to a cloud-native architecture on Kubernetes (Vultr / AWS), ClickHouse, Neon PostgreSQL, React, and Node.js
  • Built the query and export engine handling 1.2 billion contact records with sub-second response on filtered columnar reads
  • Shipped email-delivery infrastructure on Microsoft 365 and AWS SES; integrated HyperDX, PostHog, GTM, and GA for end-to-end identity-resolution analytics
  • Own full CI/CD in GitHub Actions — image build, scan, and rolling deploy across the platform and the agent stack

Work Experience

Source Scribe — Nov 2025 – Apr 2026

Founder / CTO — Multi-Provider LLM Documentation Platform (sunset)

  • Built and shipped an AI documentation platform with a Python engine running on Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, and Ollama behind a single multi-provider abstraction layer — model-agnostic routing, fallback, and per-customer policy
  • Designed a multi-tenant SaaS on DynamoDB single-table (6 GSIs for tenant isolation), RBAC, and real-time collaborative editing via Liveblocks + Yjs; built async LLM pipelines on Redis/BullMQ + AWS EventBridge with per-tenant rate isolation
  • Integrated 4 Git providers (GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps) with OAuth and SSH deploy keys; deployed on Vultr VKE after an earlier AWS Lambda + DynamoDB iteration under Terraform
  • Sunset the product in April 2026 after concluding that high-quality documentation generation requires human context the agent could not procedurally infer — kept the open-source core (parses 7 languages, generates 10+ Mermaid diagrams, ships Docusaurus sites); the lesson directly informed the human-in-the-loop, role-specialized agent design now running at TipsData

Work Experience

Tooths — Aug 2023 – Present

CoFounder / CTO — Dental Health Marketplace

  • Architected a three-sided marketplace (patients, hygienists, dentists) on AWS EKS microservices backing React Native and React web clients
  • Built Helm charts with isolated dev/staging/prod environments and CI/CD pipelines that gate on code scanning
  • Stood up DataDog observability with Slack alerting and Vanta for automated compliance evidence collection

BlackRock — Jan 2022 – Aug 2023

Associate — Infrastructure Technology Audit · New York, NY

  • Led infrastructure technology audits across the Aladdin / portfolio platform stack — Change Management, Access Controls, Version Controls, Job Monitoring
  • Coverage spanned databases, observability, and message queues; built fluency in how a top asset manager actually runs investment systems in production

DTCC — Mar 2020 – Jan 2021

Senior Associate — Infrastructure Technology Audit

  • Led audits over distributed databases, data loss prevention, VMware virtualization, access controls, change management, and IT asset management at one of the most systemically important financial market utilities

Goldman Sachs — May 2016 – Dec 2018

Senior Technology Analyst — Corporate Technology Audit

  • Provided technology assurance over Market, Credit, Liquidity, and Operational Risk tech under Dodd-Frank and CCAR — direct exposure to the risk engines hedge funds and banks use to size positions
  • Automated workpaper generation against Goldman's SecDB / Slang API, replacing manual evidence collection for Job Monitoring, Change Management, Version Controls, and Data Integrity

Tips Marketing Services — Dec 2018 – Jan 2022

Consultant — Infrastructure

  • Maintained co-location environment and Linux production servers while designing the cloud re-platforming strategy that later became Database Emailer / TipsData

Selected Projects

PRODUCTION

TipsData — 15-Agent Virtual Operations

A real business run by a fifteen-agent stack on paperclip.ing, each agent personifying a character from The Office and owning a distinct function. Each agent has its own isolated workspace and a tool surface: ClickHouse/Postgres queries, dataset exports, email-delivery actions over SES and Microsoft 365, and CRM hooks. Self-hosted on a private VPS, acting on a 1.2B-record cloud-native data platform.
