Recent work
Keytom — Cross-border crypto-fiat neobank
Co-led a 5-month engagement to ship a regulated cross-border crypto-fiat neobank for a fintech client. Two-jurisdiction compliance: Canadian MSB (FINTRAC) + Czech VASP/CASP. Owned the data layer and ledger architecture, wrote six partner integrations from scratch (Sumsub, REAP+Visa, ClearJunction, Fortress Trust, KuCoin, OKX), built the public API for both customer and staff surfaces, and designed B2B + B2C user journeys end-to-end. Live since Sep 2025 with 2,000+ clients onboarded across B2B + B2C tiers.
QSale — Multi-tenant retail SaaS
Multi-service architecture isolating storefront / admin / POS / webhooks for independent scaling. Deployed across retail chains running 1k+ physical stores — collectively 4M+ MAU, 1M+ orders processed, 100k+ products in catalog. Notable tenant: iskorka.com (jewelry retail).
AIST Travel — AI-native travel platform
MVP validating multi-vendor supply: 60+ tour operators, 30k+ hotels, tens of thousands of tour packages live. Building self-guided AI tour generation: multi-leg, risk-aware, budget-constrained itineraries. Differentiated vs Mindtrip / Layla / Wonderplan (single-destination) by handling climate / safety / budget tradeoffs across multiple destinations in one trip plan.
Multi-agent SDLC pipeline — production dev workflow
Production pipeline on Claude Code + Plane (open-source PM) + MCP servers + custom task orchestrator. Role-based agent specialization (Systems Analyst, Business Analyst, Architect, Developer, QA), GitOps + IaC discipline, full code review of agent output. No agent-driven production operations — deploys, migrations, prod commands stay human-controlled. Open-sourcing the orchestrator Q2 2026.
