OpenOps

Lead Software Engineer

Jul 2024 to May 2026

Contribution

What I helped move forward.

Product thinking, architecture and hands-on engineering — shaped around the needs of the team and the business.
  • Led the frontend development of OpenOps — an open-source, no-code workflow builder designed to streamline and automate FinOps practices, with an enterprise offering on top
  • Headed the AI Agent initiative, delivering an advanced AI agent that dramatically improved usability and significantly lowered the barrier to entry for FinOps workflow automation
  • Hands-on with AI Agents and Agentic AI development — custom harnesses, skills, MCP integrations and an MCP gateway, subagents
  • Used Paperclip as a dark factory for autonomous agent execution and as the ticketing layer
