Senior engineer, 13+ years in distributed systems. I build anti-financial-crime systems at a Nordic bank by day, and solo-ship agentic-AI products โ and win hackathons โ by night.
I care about AI that explains its reasoning, leaves an audit trail, and actually works in production.

problem> Manual KYC/AML review doesn't scale, and unaudited AI decisions don't survive a regulator's questions. approach> Five specialist AI agents, coordinated over the A2A protocol on Azure AI Foundry, run KYC, AML, and risk screening โ every finding grounded in cited regulation via Foundry IQ, every decision backed by a full audit trail. Built solo; one of three Hack for Good winners. Studied Foundry IQ before building ARGUS, then competed in the Agents League Reasoning Agents track โ and won Hack for Good (1 of 3).

problem> GPU/AI-infra changelogs are noisy and scattered โ teams miss the one release that breaks their pipeline. approach> An agentic pipeline that turns noisy changelogs into cited, bounded, inspectable release briefings for GPU and AI-infrastructure teams โ grounded and source-linked, never hand-wavy.

๐ฌ Banker's WrappedAI-powered financial storytelling Backblaze Generative Media ยท Devpost โ
problem> Nobody reads a transaction CSV for fun โ but everyone will watch a 60-second recap of their own year. approach> Spotify Wrapped, but for your bank account โ an agentic pipeline that turns a transaction CSV into a personalized 60-second narrated recap video. Three of four AI steps route through the Genblaze SDK; Backblaze B2 is the source of truth, storing 14 artifacts per session with a SHA-256 apiece, so share links survive a full backend redeploy.

๐ง ContinuumDurable incident memory for cold-started agents problem> An agent killed mid-incident normally loses all context โ and starts the investigation over from zero. approach> Agentic incident-response memory that survives the agent being killed mid-incident โ execution state lives in CockroachDB, not process memory, so a cold-started agent resumes from the exact interrupted step. |

ARGUS: Compliance Infrastructure That Believes Financial Access Is a Human Right โ techcommunity.microsoft.com ยท Guest post (July 2026)
Microsoft published my full write-up on the Educator Developer Blog, including how ARGUS coordinates five agents over A2A with citation-grounded risk scoring.
