Professional Summary

Staff-level backend and platform engineer with 13+ years of experience across Python, TypeScript, distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, and production reliability. Built and shipped Rigour and Rigovo from zero, and recently led the CTP platform migration at Turing across GCP projects, Kubernetes, Terraform, Workload Identity Federation, Keycloak/SSO, observability, and event-driven task operations. Hands-on with Python services, PostgreSQL, Redis, Pub/Sub, Cloud SQL, Kubernetes, and a working familiarity with Go for backend systems.

Most recently built and migrated CTP at Turing — a multi-team task-operations platform spanning GCP, Terraform, Kubernetes, Keycloak, Secret Manager, Pub/Sub, Cloud SQL, Firebase, Discovery Engine, GitHub Actions, and observability. Backend work spans Python services, TypeScript/Fastify services, PostgreSQL, Redis, queues, idempotent event flows, and production debugging. Also built Rigour — an open-source quality gate system with 19 deterministic gates, AST-based complexity analysis, security vulnerability detection, and an MCP server for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code. Created Rigovo, an AI interviewer with voice interaction and real-time 15-signal verification.

Before and alongside founder work, led engineering at Turing (AI/AGI platforms, identity, task operations, distributed event systems) and ICE Mortgage Technology (cloud migration, CI/CD, analytics). 13+ years across Python, TypeScript, GCP, AWS, Kubernetes, distributed systems, and a light working familiarity with Go for backend services.

Key Highlights

Founder & Builder

Built two products from zero to production: Rigour (open-source quality gates for AI code, 44 releases on NPM) and Rigovo (AI-powered technical hiring with voice interviews and 15-signal verification).

Developer Tooling & AI Agents

Deep expertise in AST analysis, MCP protocol integration, Fix Packet schemas, multi-agent governance, and building tools that enforce engineering standards deterministically.

Platform Architecture & Migration

Led CTP and identity migration across dev, preprod, and prod GCP projects with Terraform, Workload Identity Federation, Keycloak, GitHub Actions, Kubernetes, and SRE dashboards.

Full-Stack Production Systems

Python, TypeScript, Node.js, FastAPI, Fastify, PostgreSQL, Redis, Pub/Sub, GCP, AWS, and Kubernetes. Comfortable from backend APIs and data models to CI/CD and production debugging.

Production

Rigour - Quality Gates for AI-Generated Code

Jan 2026 - Present
Founder & Solo Engineer

Open-source system that forces AI coding agents to write production-grade code. Sits between the agent and the codebase, enforcing structural, complexity, and security standards before code ships.

AI agents routinely claim "done" while leaving TODO comments, God files, and complexity violations. Rigour solves this with a stateless feedback loop: deterministic quality gates check the filesystem, produce structured Fix Packets (machine-readable JSON diagnostics), and the agent self-heals. No cloud, no telemetry, fully local. Published on NPM with 44 semantic releases, MIT licensed, with MCP server integration for Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code.

Key Achievements

  • Engineered 19 quality gates: cyclomatic complexity, method count, nesting depth, file size, content hygiene, security vulnerabilities (SQLi, XSS, CSRF, prototype pollution)
  • Invented Fix Packet v2 schema — structured JSON diagnostics that agents consume to self-heal without human intervention
  • Built multi-agent governance: scope isolation, conflict detection, checkpoint supervision, context drift prevention
  • Implemented MCP server for native integration with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, and VS Code
  • Architected as a pnpm monorepo (4 packages, ~3,300 SLOC) with strict TypeScript and Zod schema validation
  • Published 44 semantic releases across @rigour-labs/core, @rigour-labs/cli, and @rigour-labs/mcp on NPM
  • Built Supervisor Mode: iterative agent execution with automated gate checks and Fix Packet feedback loops
  • Supports TypeScript, JavaScript, and Python via web-tree-sitter AST analysis with universal fallback
