From Macromedia Flex and Yahoo! to distributed platforms, video infrastructure, search systems, and Agentic AI.
I have spent more than two decades designing and building internet scale systems.
My career has evolved through multiple technology eras while remaining centred on one thing: building reliable systems that solve real problems.
My journey spans:
- Macromedia Flex and Flash
- Yahoo! platform engineering
- Video on Demand and DRM systems
- Search and analytics platforms
- Cloud infrastructure
- Blockchain applications
- Agentic AI and multimodal systems
Today I serve as CTO at FreePixel, where I lead platform architecture, infrastructure, search systems, AI initiatives, and product engineering.
- Agentic AI systems
- RAG and vector search
- Distributed architectures
- Infrastructure and observability
- Search and knowledge systems
- Open source technologies
