About Harry

Senior AI Platform Engineer with 10+ years of production software experience across AI, full-stack, platform infrastructure and financial systems.

I build production GenAI systems: AI agents, RAG-style workflows, LLM gateways, APIs, tool orchestration, observability, cost controls and human-in-the-loop workflows. My focus is turning AI prototypes into reliable software that can be deployed, monitored and integrated into real business processes.

Before focusing on AI, I spent several years building high-stakes crypto/financial infrastructure, including audited Solidity systems securing $1B+ TVL. I work best at the intersection of software engineering, architecture and business workflows: understanding the problem, designing the system, building the first version and making it production-ready.
