Simulated engagement · Logistics
Harborline Dispatch Copilot
Shipment risk score with every point explained, the approved SOP and cited sources. Shipment data never leaves the environment and no external model is called; the audit log keeps the decision, not the ticket text.
Simulated engagement · Healthcare ops
Northshore After-Hours Intake
Routes overnight portal notes for the morning nurse and blocks any note without consent. It routes and cites; it does not diagnose, and note text is never sent to an outside model.
Simulated engagement · Payments
Brightpath Payment Reconciliation
Idempotent matching of webhooks to the settlement file. Duplicate events are ignored, and any cent mismatch goes to an exception queue instead of being marked settled.
Simulated engagement · Field service
Helios Field Parts
Offline spare-part lookup for a depot with no reliable uplink. It picks the bin that actually has stock, reports stockouts, and escalates unknown faults instead of guessing. It never creates a purchase order.
Simulated engagement · Utilities
Cedar Grid Outage Desk
Ranks storm outages so a feeder with a life-safety account goes ahead of a larger commercial outage, and suggests crew counts. It does not text customers or dispatch crews on its own.
Simulated engagement · Procurement
Northline Vendor Review
Checks vendor packets for expired insurance and bank-detail changes, and enforces that the person who entered a change cannot accept it. Software can mark a packet ready for a human, never approved.
Method · Templates
FDE Engagement Playbook
How I run an engagement: discovery brief, success metrics agreed before code, solution design, security and data rules, a shadow-week rollout and the customer readout. The engagements above are built from these templates.
Learning ladder · Platform
Platform Engineering Ladder
Small tested FastAPI services that climb from host health, cost and log analysis through Terraform and Kubernetes rendering to multi-tenant auth and a self-service developer platform. Each renders or plans; none applies to production.
Learning ladder · Data & AI
Selected Skill Ladder
A progression from Python fundamentals and data science through ML, NLP and RAG — PDF question answering, BM25 hybrid search and a RAG evaluation gate — implemented without hosted models so every score is reproducible.
Learning ladder · FDE progression
20-Project AI + Platform Path
Public labs from host health and analytics through churn, fraud, production ML, RAG eval, MCP CloudOps, an internal developer platform, and an agentic ops capstone. Each is a local proof: extractive retrieval, tests, and no production apply.
Coursework · MLOps
MLOps Zoomcamp
Hands-on exercises for productionizing ML services: experiment tracking, orchestration, deployment and monitoring.
