For AI Labs, Evals, and Agent Systems Teams

The short version of why I think I fit best in the layer where AI product work, evals, agent reliability, operator tooling, and hands-on building start to overlap.

I am not trying to position myself as a pure research scientist. The more honest claim is that I am very interested in the research-adjacent layer where a team needs product judgment, workflow design, operator thinking, and enough technical fluency to help model capability become a system people can inspect and trust.

That is part of why AI labs, evals work, and agent systems are so interesting to me. Once the question is no longer just whether a model can do something impressive once, the harder work becomes: what should be measured, what should stay deterministic, how should the agent be constrained, what should the operator see, and how do you know whether the system is actually improving.

My background is in product leadership, company building, growth, and technology strategy. I previously led product at Fliff and Mojo and worked in technology strategy at Cerberus Capital. I like bringing that product and operator judgment into AI-heavy environments where the problem is still a little underdefined.

I also like being close enough to the implementation to test ideas directly. That can mean using Claude Code and Codex to build a small tool, mock an operator flow, tighten a spec, create a scoring path, or ship a front-end artifact that helps a team learn faster.

So if you are an AI lab, evals team, or agent systems group that needs someone closer to product builder, workflow operator, or systems-minded generalist than to generic PM process, this is the neighborhood where I think I fit best.

What I care about most in this zone

• Evals that reflect real workflow or operator value

• Benchmarks that are useful instead of performative

• Agent reliability, failure analysis, and review paths

• Operator tooling for inspection, routing, and trust

• Faster loops between idea, spec, prototype, and learning

Why I may be a fit

• I think in workflows and systems, not just features

• I can bridge product judgment with hands-on AI execution

• I am comfortable in ambiguous, builder-heavy environments

• I care about the layer between model capability and durable use

• I use Claude Code and Codex as part of real prototyping and workflow exploration
