Making the right connections.
At Blink, I delivered recommendation features that helped connect attendees and surface relevant sessions. Alongside that work, I designed and evaluated a separate beta workflow for flight creation.
Product engineering
Recommendations, delivered
I delivered attendee matchmaking and session recommendations using PostgreSQL/pgvector and Python/FastAPI services. The work included automated tests, CI/CD, and staged deployments.
I worked with product, frontend, mobile, QA, and backend colleagues to bring the AI features into the product.
Beta · Feature-flagged
A flight-creation agent in beta
I designed and evaluated a feature-flagged LangGraph agent with five tools covering booking, attendee search, location lookup, and document parsing. This was a beta agent workflow.
A Docling and Gemini 2.5 Flash extraction workflow converted flight and hotel PDFs and images into structured data. The recommendation features above were delivered; this agent remained an evaluated beta.
Feasibility evaluation
Evaluating self-hosted inference
I evaluated Gemma 3 12B with Ollama on AWS EC2 G5 GPUs. I measured time to first token, throughput, latency, memory, and GPU utilization to assess self-hosting feasibility.
