About

I'm building out infrastructure to enable the supervision and evaluation of large clusters of agentic systems. Supported by Y Combinator & the def/acc program https://www.joinef.com/posts/introducing-def-acc-at-ef/. I was previously a Software Engineer at Netcraft, where I leveraged Language Models to interact with tens of thousands of scammers and extract intelligence relating to fraud infrastructure: https://www.netcraft.com/blog/mule-as-a-service-infrastructure-exposed/ Before University I spent 9 months mostly hitchhiking 20,000+km from Bangkok to Alaska. After university I bought a BMW G 650 GS on Facebook marketplace in Medellín, Colombia, and drove another 20,000km over 7 months to Ushuaia, the southernmost town in the world. During these journeys I vastly improved my interpersonal skills and my ability to navigate complex, high-dimensional problems like grizzly bears and engine failure.
