Private venture studio. SPARC: 3,000+ lines, 12 agents, scaffolding from 2 days to 4 hours. ClawWarden: Rust-based AI executive assistant, least-privilege architecture. Zetto: sub-second Japanese voice AI, 75% cheaper than Gemini Live. Self-funded via retail operations — zero VC, 100% IP ownership.

Architected the Magnet AI Agents platform — voice and chat agents that ripped manual client intake out of the workflow. Bolted SPARC across the engineering team. Build times dropped ~75%.

Ran daily operations for a high-volume retail site. Inventory, staffing, logistics — tight margins, time pressure, no slack. Self-funded Axion R&D. Every bottleneck is a bug.

Modular Dockerized middleware platform for distributed community ops. Ripped out file-based loading, wired in manifest-driven GitHub sync. 46 stars, zero promotion. Contributors extended it without touching core.

99.9% uptime across 100+ POS sites. If you think your staging environment is stressful, try a Friday night rush with a cascading network failure. I've seen it. I fixed it. Monthly audits, zero unplanned outages. Final shift: filed an Auror report on a $599 ORC exploit — manual systems are always the weakest link.

Ran store P&L and logistics across a decade under margin pressure. Automated shift-swapping and labour allocation via custom Jotform platforms. Designed SOPs that scaled headcount without adding management overhead. Every dollar of margin funded Axion R&D.

Flagship rollout. Scaled headcount by 70. Ripped 15% waste out of inventory by refactoring supply-chain logic. Two new locations launched from scratch, both on time.

Shipped early OSS contributions and built the visual language that became the Axion design system. Learned to code by breaking things that actually mattered. Foundation for everything since.
