Tools and languages I use to build systems
I spent three years building backend systems in production, then went back to school for an MSc in Applied AI at Warwick. I wanted to understand machine learning and LLM systems at the same depth I understood backend architecture: deep enough to make them reliable, not just functional. The backend experience carries over directly. I have built Spring Boot and NestJS microservices serving 5,000+ users, shipped authentication microservices with 300ms response times, and run production infrastructure on Keycloak, PostgreSQL, and Docker. My dissertation applies that same standard to AI. Does splitting a compliance agent into a multi-agent system actually make it more repeatable? I ran a pre-registered experiment across 41,400 scored runs and five open-weight model families to find out. The answer was model-dependent: repeatability is not something you get for free from architecture, and most of the inconsistency traced back to serving-stack cache state rather than randomness.
