I'm a software engineer with over 20 years of experience building scalable, enterprise platforms. I’ve led backend and architecture initiatives at companies like Apple, Amazon, and Intuit - designing systems that power millions of users and orchestrate complex enterprise workflows.

Beyond my professional work, I’m deeply passionate about open-source software as a force for innovation - especially for small and mid-sized companies that need affordable, adaptable technology without vendor lock-in.

FlowInquiry is an open-source, self-hostable alternative to tools like Jira and Zendesk.
It helps small and growing teams manage work clearly, stay aligned, and build their own workflows—without enterprise overhead.

Highlights:

• ✅ Kanban project management with iterations and epics
• ⚙️ Configurable workflows and SLA tracking
• 🧠 AI-assisted insights using ChatGPT and Ollama
• 📬 Real-time updates via WebSocket, Slack, and Email
• 🌐 Cloud-native deployment (Docker, Helm, Terraform, Kubernetes)

FlowInquiry embodies my long-term goal: empowering small and mid-sized companies to modernize operations through open-source innovation.

Askimo is a flexible, pluggable command-line assistant that connects directly with AI models like OpenAI and Ollama.

Key features:
💬 Real-time streaming chat in the terminal
🔌 Extensible plugin system for custom commands and providers
⚡ GraalVM native builds for instant startup
🛠 Session-based configuration for personalized workflows

Askimo bridges the gap between developer productivity and accessible AI.

Both projects reflect what I care most about:

• Building practical, developer-friendly tools that simplify complex work
• Creating accessible technology that supports small and mid-sized businesses
• Encouraging a culture of open collaboration and continuous learning

• 🧱 Enterprise architect focused on scalability, maintainability, and clean system design
• ⚙️ DevOps practitioner using automation, IaC, and container orchestration

My GitHub is where I experiment, learn, and share tools that help developers and teams work smarter.
Open-source is how I give back—by making technology more accessible for everyone.
