Luminik is an event pipeline platform for B2B teams. It helps sales and marketing teams connect attendee sourcing, enrichment, sequencing, capture, and attribution in the systems they already use.

I am building the company hands-on: product, engineering, early sales, customer work, and the operating cadence around it. My bias is to sell before building, work alongside customers, and build repeated workflows into product.

The public engineering side of that work is Alfred, an open-source framework that runs fleets of coding agents on Claude Code and Codex. It runs Luminik's engineering every day; in a 30-day window (Jun to Jul 2026) the fleet merged 265 agent-authored PRs across 10 repos, with human review on every merge. Docs at alfred.luminik.io.

• Aura at Bain Founder's Studio: PE due-diligence software. Took it from 0 to $3.6M ARR in 15 months while the engineering team grew from five to thirty-three.
• Mainteny: co-founded the European field-service SaaS company. Built the initial product, worked directly with early customers, helped raise a $2.7M seed, and helped build a high-performing product and engineering team.
• SnowOptix: Snowflake cost optimization built on ACCOUNT_USAGE system tables, using Snowflake Cortex and Snowpark Container Services, distributed as a Snowflake Native App. Entered Snowflake's Startup Accelerator, and the customer discovery behind it became Luminik.
• BlueJeans: backend engineer on video conferencing, starting in 2014. My first deep exposure to a scaled engineering organization.

I like work where the distance between customer conversation, product decision, and shipped code is short. I have led teams as they grew from founding groups into larger engineering orgs. The parts I care about are clear ownership, direct customer context, strong engineering standards, and a steady product rhythm.

At Luminik, I stay close to the product and the sales work while an agent fleet on Alfred carries the day-to-day engineering: specs-driven planning, isolated git worktrees, automated PR review, and approval gates. I decide product direction, review every merge, and handle customer commitments myself.

While setting up the agent stack, I contributed fixes and repros to tools I depend on.

• Hermes Agent #12251: contributed to the Gemini auth regression fix.
• Hermes Agent #12224: contributed the WhatsApp formatting issue and expected behavior.
• gbrain #89: contributed testing notes on Gemini embedding support.
