Hi, I'm Andy πŸ‘‹

πŸ“ PNW | πŸ€– Director of AI

Python FastAPI ElasticSearch TypeScript Claude AWS Docker SQL

Building AI capabilities from zero to production in the automotive aftermarket. 10+ years turning ML/AI into real business value β€” from Wikipedia to PE-backed enterprise.

What I Do

  • πŸ—οΈ Built an AI function from scratch at a PE-backed automotive aftermarket company β€” team, strategy, infrastructure, all of it
  • 🎯 AI enablement for the enterprise β€” translating cutting-edge AI into practical business outcomes for executive leadership

Background

  • 🌐 Wikimedia Foundation β€” ML/AI infrastructure at scale
  • 🎡 Discogs β€” Software engineering for the world's largest music database
  • 🏒 10+ years remote β€” Building and shipping from the Pacific Northwest since 2015

Beyond the Code

  • 🎸 SunHypnotic β€” Experimental music label, operating since 2008
  • 🎡 Acoustic guitar β€” Alternate tunings, neo-electro-acoustic explorations
  • πŸƒ Trail runner β€” Pacific Northwest trails
  • πŸ• Newfoundland dog dad

Philosophy

"Ship the thing that moves the needle." β€” I believe AI's biggest impact isn't in demos, it's in the boring, high-value problems nobody else wants to automate.
