Software Architect · Engineering Leader · AI Systems

Staff Software Architect with 15 years of experience designing systems that scale — from Angular-to-React migrations serving millions of users, to LangGraph multi-agent workflows running in production. I lead teams and ship code.

About

I've spent 15+ years leading engineering teams and shaping systems architecture — most recently as Staff Software Architect at Suzy, where I directed a team of nine engineers and contractors building AI-powered consumer research infrastructure. Before that, nearly a decade at LegalZoom leading the frontend engineering teams behind checkout systems serving millions of annual customers. I set technical direction, drive delivery through teams, and own the architecture decisions that make both possible.

My current focus is AI-native architecture — not AI as a feature, but AI as the fundamental design constraint. That means rethinking state management, orchestration, failure modes, and observability for systems where LLMs are first-class citizens. I'm looking for roles where deep technical ownership and engineering leadership come together — whether that's shaping architecture, scaling teams, or building AI-native systems from the ground up.

Expertise

Where I operate

At the intersection of systems architecture, AI engineering, and technical leadership.

01

Full-Stack Engineering

End-to-end application development across the stack — component architecture, REST APIs, and the full-stack patterns that let teams move fast without breaking things.

02

Architecture & Scalable Systems

Distributed systems, microservices, service-oriented architecture, and reusable component design — built for performance, reliability, and long-term technical strategy.

03

AI-Powered Product Development

Building systems where LLMs are first-class citizens — not bolt-ons. Agent orchestration, RAG pipelines, multi-agent workflows, and the state management patterns that make them maintainable.

Experience

Where I've worked

Jan 2024 – March 2026

Staff Software Architect

SuzyRemote / New York, NY

Promoted from Frontend Architect (Oct 2021 – Jan 2024)

Led a 9-person frontend team as Frontend Architect within a 30-40 person engineering org. As the company restructured, scope expanded to include mobile, backend, and full architecture ownership across a leaner ~12-person team. Modernized a legacy monolith into Nx-based microsites, then led delivery of 4 new production applications in the final year: a chat-based survey client, Suzy Speaks (AI voice agent platform), and Suzy Stories — a LangGraph-powered AI insights platform.

Projects

Notable work

01

Suzy Stories — AI Insights Platform

Production multi-agent system that generated Slides, Narratives, and Infographics from user survey data. Built on LangGraph with multiple models orchestrated as tools: Claude Opus for insight generation and verification, Gemini for slide rendering, and Claude Haiku for brand/entity identification. Structured tool-calling drove each step with automatic regeneration loops on quality failures.
