Senior Software Engineer @ Duplex (Redbrick subsidiary)
Passionate about building robust platforms, wrangling content, and bringing creative energy—both in code and sound.
- Experience: 15+ years in software implementation, now leaning into staff and platform engineering.
- Domains: IAM, payments, content management (metadata, DRM, distribution, royalties)—across music, video, photography, and most recently, news.
- Stack: Node.js, TypeScript, Python, Go, databases of all flavors.
- Current Focus:
- Training retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) agents to analyze evolving curated content (think: ongoing wars, celebrity feuds, and more).
- Innovating ad tech for the cookieless future—smart header bidding, enriched context, and privacy-first approaches.
I'm a musician—playing 12 instruments, composing, recording, producing, and mastering electronic music.
Recently, I've been diving into field recording: collecting nature’s sounds for fresh sonic textures and sound design.
