AI Platform Engineer · Staff Cloud Engineer @ Airbnb — I build AI systems that survive production: agent orchestration, LLM infrastructure, and RAG, on top of platform reliability for 8M+ listings.
My design rule: every autonomous run ends in a validated artifact or an alert — silence is not a valid state.
18 years in tech · 5+ at Airbnb (Staff level) · 2+ years building production AI infrastructure · based in Barcelona, Spain · available for contract (B2B, outside IR35) — remote EU/UK/US.
AI Platform & Agents
- Multi-agent orchestration — resumable state machines, schema-locked handoffs, human approval gates, cross-model verification (migrating to Temporal)
- LLM infrastructure — LLM gateways, MCP tooling, RAG (pgvector), embedding inference (ONNX, GPU/CPU)
- Reliability for autonomous systems — evals, artifact contracts, watchdog supervision ("no log = alert") — auditable autonomy
Platform foundation
- Kubernetes & Service Mesh at hyperscale — multi-cluster platforms, Istio, alerts-as-code
- Cloud architecture on AWS & GCP — Solutions Architect Professional, hands-on operator
- Infrastructure as Code with Terraform — modules, patterns, governance across large estates
- Observability & CI/CD — Prometheus, Grafana, SLO/SLI reliability · GitHub Actions, Spinnaker
