Architecting resilient cloud systems and high-craft native software.
I am a systems architect and software engineer with extensive experience across Google Cloud Platform, the Google Cloud Agent Platform, declarative infrastructure, and edge-computed consumer applications.
Background
Engineering Ethos & Leadership
With over 4 years of specialized experience in Google Cloud architecture alongside more than 12 years of full-stack and systems programming, I focus on building high-reliability platforms that eliminate operational friction and unnecessary complexity.
My work spans containerized serverless microservices on Google Cloud Run, declarative Infrastructure as Code with Terraform and Pulumi, and the Google Cloud Agent Platform for deterministic enterprise agentic workflows.
In parallel, I am the founder of PotatoDog LLC, an independent software studio building privacy-first consumer applications that run machine learning models directly on client hardware.

Competencies
Core Systems & Architecture Domains
Deep technical experience spanning high-throughput cloud infrastructure, deterministic agentic engineering, and native client software.
Google Cloud Platform & Serverless
High-throughput architectures on GCP Cloud Run (Gen2), Cloud Firestore, Cloud Pub/Sub, Artifact Registry, IAM security policies, VPC Service Controls, and Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). Focused on sub-50ms p99 latency and efficient concurrency calibration.
Google Cloud Agent Platform & AI
Designing agentic workflows with the Agent Development Kit (ADK), hosting on Agent Engine, integrating Model Garden foundation models, and implementing deterministic tool-calling, RAG architectures, and evaluation pipelines.
Infrastructure as Code & Zero-Drift
Declarative cloud infrastructure provisioning via Terraform and Pulumi (Go SDK). Enforcing immutable container SHA256 digest pinning in Artifact Registry to guarantee zero-drift deployments and clean supply chain security.
Edge Computing & Native Mobile
Compiling quantized Small Language Models via native `llama.cpp` runtimes with GPU acceleration (Metal/Vulkan). Native iOS engineering with SwiftUI and Swift Concurrency, paired with NIST P-256 hardware cryptography over Bluetooth Low Energy.
