Summary

15+ years building for the web: high-tech startups, landing pages carried by heavy animation and visual work, and corporate portals where speed and security come first. Recent years have been mostly AI, in production and not in demos: LLM agents with tool calling, MCP servers I have been shipping since the protocol appeared, RAG and hybrid search over embeddings, recommendation systems, and computer vision that reads a photographed menu and translates it. I keep the provider swappable — OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter — and I watch what it costs: token and latency budgets, per-user credit metering, model tier chosen per task. Around the model sits ordinary engineering: Node.js and MongoDB by preference, with 5+ years of Python, PHP, PostgreSQL and MySQL behind that, Vue / Nuxt and React / Next.js on the front end, and the DevOps and CI/CD side of a project. I can deliver a project from scratch, and I can take over someone else's legacy code — including migrations across major framework versions.
