I'm a software architect, independent app developer and PhD researcher. I build distributed systems, tools for working with AI agents, and native apps for learning, training and everyday life. My research explores how games can adapt to the people playing them.
- Engineering: distributed and event-driven systems, payments platforms, Java backends and cloud infrastructure.
- Independent work: Flotilla, an always-on workspace for AI coding agents, alongside iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch apps.
- Research: PhD studies at POLITEHNICA Bucharest, working on procedural generation, player modelling and reinforcement learning.
An always-on desktop workspace for teams of AI coding agents. A Rust daemon coordinates persistent agents, durable messaging and scheduling, with a desktop client and an iPhone companion. Open source · Rust · Tauri · React |
A research framework and playable Unity testbed connecting procedural dungeon generation, player modelling and reinforcement learning to study adaptive gameplay. PhD research · Python · PyTorch · Unity |
