About

I build software that ships — and lately, software that thinks. I'm a product engineer with 3+ years of experience owning features end-to-end — from API design and database modeling to React interfaces, mobile integrations, and AI-powered functionality. Some things I've built: — An AI customer support chatbot using RAG architecture (TF-IDF retrieval + Claude API), trained on 1,900+ real conversations, deployed in production — A real-time event pipeline using Segment webhooks with downstream analytics and CRM sync — Mobile attribution integration across iOS and Android — A referral program and milestone reward system, designed and shipped end-to-end — A user database cleanup pipeline processing 70K+ profiles for targeting accuracy I like working at the intersection of product, data, and AI — where engineering decisions have direct user impact. I'm comfortable picking up ambiguous problems, scoping them, and seeing them through to deployment. Currently exploring global and remote opportunities, with a specific interest in Japan. Actively preparing for JLPT N5 and open to relocation with visa sponsorship.
