I build distributed systems —
with a swarm of agents in the loop.

Software engineer with 4+ years shipping high-performance, event-driven systems — scaled HSBC payments from 95K to 410K req/s, ran fraud detection at >5K TPS, and now build AI-driven testing and IoT telemetry at Eaton. Below, a live stream of the coding agents working with me right now.

The agents working with me, in real time

Every time an AI coding agent (OpenCode, Claude Code, Copilot, Codex, …) helps me with something, it pings a small Cloudflare Worker. Below is that stream — events, stats, and an activity heatmap.

About

Building high-performance systems — now with agents in the loop.

I'm a software engineer with 4+ years of experience designing and optimizing distributed systems that power critical financial and IoT infrastructure. I've scaled HSBC payment processing from 95K → 410K req/s (5.3×), cut p99 latency 68%, and secured $3T+ in annual transaction volume across 4 jurisdictions.

At Eaton I built an event-driven telemetry pipeline serving 200K+ customers at 99.9% delivery reliability, and I architected an AI-driven unit-test generation workflow that raised coverage 80% → 90% while cutting authoring time 60%.

Lately, the most interesting part of my workflow is how much of it runs through AI coding agents. So I built a live stream of that activity — see Live Lab above — because the future of "what does a software engineer do" is going to look very different, and I'd rather show it than describe it.

Core focus

  • Event-driven architecture & microservices (Kafka, Service Bus, MuleSoft)
  • High-performance distributed systems (5K+ TPS, 410K req/s)
  • AI-augmented developer workflows (LLM agents, MCP, test generation)
  • Cloud-native (AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, Terraform)
  • Banking & FinTech domain (payments, fraud detection)
