Professional Summary

Applied AI engineer in Cardiff, working on the part of AI that has to survive production: what it costs, how long it takes, and what a model is allowed to reach. I wrote agent-platform, a Rust service putting seven hosted model providers and two local runtimes behind one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, forwarding each caller’s own key rather than storing any. I wrote claude-code-plugins, an agent spend limit and routing layer measured 68% cheaper over four identical tasks and replayed across 395 real sessions before shipping. Underneath is four years of production backend engineering, Java and Spring Boot finance microservices on PostgreSQL, RabbitMQ, Google Cloud and Jenkins, and that is where the habits come from: fix the query before reaching for a cache, and never publish a number nobody measured.
