Applied AI Internal tools CRM / RevOps systems

I build the agent-assisted systems and internal tools that help marketing, sales, and ops teams run.

I've spent about ten years inside the CRM, billing, lead-to-cash, and data systems those teams depend on. I like working with the operators who run the process, putting agents on top of the tools they already use, and handing back a workflow they can audit and control.

Two skill stacks that don’t often overlap.

AI teams often hire engineers who have never owned a HubSpot pipeline or a billing reconciliation. MarTech and RevOps teams often hire generalists who have never shipped an evaluated agent system.

I’ve spent about ten years on both sides. Lately most of my work has lived on the AI and internal-tools side.

The systems below come from that overlap: applied AI where it helps, operational workflows where it has to hold up, and the data structures and guardrails that keep automation usable once it leaves the whiteboard.

How I work

What I focus on

I focus on retrieval accuracy, the guardrails that keep failure rates low, the observability that makes agent behavior diagnosable, and the handoff between agents and the systems they touch: billing platforms, CRMs, and internal tools.

What I optimize for

I optimize for small surfaces, strong contracts, eval gates, and handoffs operators can live with day to day.

Where I tend to help most

When a process is manual, fragile, or invisible, when data spans systems that do not agree, or when an AI workflow needs a quality bar it cannot fake.

Where I'm probably not the right fit

Pure ML research, ground-up infrastructure or Kubernetes platform work, or anything that needs me to own visual design too. I'd rather flag a stretch up front than oversell the fit.

If you're building agent-assisted systems, internal tools, or the RevOps and MarTech backbone under them, feel free to reach out. I'm always up for comparing notes.
