Open to full-time roles · Remote or Waterloo/Toronto
Looking for an AI engineer who has shipped real systems?
I'm Franklin. I turn ambiguous business ideas into working products, backend workflows, and AI-assisted systems that need to hold up in production, not just in a demo. Based in Waterloo, open to remote roles and opportunities in Waterloo or Toronto.
What I offer
What I bring to the role.
Product engineering
Eight years across Node.js, TypeScript, React, Python, APIs, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD, and the system design underneath delivery.
Startup judgment
I've managed cross-functional delivery, worked inside enterprise support pressure, and helped turn rough ideas into systems a team can operate with limited resources.
