Healthcare Integrations & Platform Reliability

I build partner-facing integration platforms, API ecosystems, and the operational practices that make support predictable.

Marion, VA | Remote-friendly

Overview

I'm a hands-on integration architect with 10+ years in healthcare IT. I care about the boring stuff that makes integrations succeed in production: contracts, error handling, observability, and clear operational ownership.

Outside of client work, I run a homelab where I experiment with local AI inference (AMD Radeon GPUs), build agent orchestration tools, and ship small utilities that solve very specific problems.

This site is a mix of professional writing, case studies, and lab work. The through-line is the same: measurable reliability and pragmatic engineering.

How I Work

Make the contract explicit

APIs, docs, and “this is what success looks like” should match. If they don’t, support becomes archaeology.

Measure before optimizing

I prefer a baseline and a tight loop: instrument, test, change one thing, validate, repeat.

Operational ownership wins

Healthy systems have clear on-call expectations, runbooks, and a feedback loop from incidents into engineering.

Let's Connect

I'm focused on building durable integration platforms and take on selective consulting or advisory work where deep interoperability and operational rigor matter. If that sounds relevant, I'd love to connect.
