Work history

Contract · Dec 2025 to present · React, Next.js, Python, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, SQL, Hermes, Codex, Claude Code

Partner with Exactius teams across data, product, creative, and operations to turn messy internal requests into scoped technical work, then implement the pieces that need hands-on engineering.
Build and maintain features for Violet, Exactius's customer-facing analytics platform, working across dashboard workflows, data-backed reporting, publishing flows, and internal tooling.
Built live context layers for partner work: company baseline, partner facts, current projects, learning agenda, testing roadmap, source links, and review rules kept together in one place.
Built custom agents and scheduled workflows that pull changing context from meetings, docs, task systems, dashboards, and team conversations, then keep the shared context store up to date.
Built a managed dashboard publishing service and API for Violet, plus the development workflow around it, so analysts can use Claude Code to create, preview, validate, and ship dashboard code without engineer support for every change.
