Founding Engineer at Hoodo Technologies · software engineer in Calgary

building ManyBuildings toward its first customers

I like turning unstructured data into actionable business insights.

I'm a software engineer in Calgary and the founding engineer at Hoodo Technologies, where I lead product and platform engineering across our SaaS suite. I'm building ManyBuildings, a property-management platform, from greenfield, and I lead the customer-facing integration work on Deal-to-Delivery, our automotive-retail product.

Day to day that means architecture, integration design, multi-tenant data modeling, security, and infrastructure, plus the discovery, demos, and onboarding that put it in front of real customers. I shipped a full bidirectional PBS DMS integration now piloting with two large Calgary dealer groups, and led a production security audit and platform modernization along the way.

I got here the long way. I led construction crews before I wrote a line of code, started at Hoodo as an intern in late 2025, and worked up to founding engineer. I'm finishing a BTech in Software Development at SAIT (graduating 2027). I like unglamorous industries with overdue tooling, and I care a lot about getting the inputs right before they harden into code.

    A retrieval-augmented agent over my own notes, built from scratch with no frameworks: own chunking, local embeddings, a SQLite vector store, the retrieval math, and a cited-answer agent loop. Benchmarked keyword vs vector vs hybrid vs reranking vs HyDE, and rebuilt an eval that was reporting misleading numbers.
