Software & Product Engineer | AI Developer Advocate | Technical Writer
I'm Brandon — a passionate product engineer and AI advocate, building tools that help developers unlock the full power of modern technologies. As Founder and DevRel at TechOps Apex, I blend hands-on product development with developer education, technical writing, and community engagement.
At the heart of my work lies a strong focus on AI developer tools. I’ve worked extensively with platforms like:
- 🧠 OpenAI
- 🤗 Hugging Face
- 🔗 LangChain
- 🌲 Pinecone
- 🧪 TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Scikit-learn
Whether it’s integrating LLMs, deploying ML models, or building dev-facing APIs—my mission is to make AI usable, scalable, and accessible for all developers.
- 🔧 Full-stack product development (frontend + backend)
- 📦 Building dev tools and SDKs
- 🧠 AI/ML integration (RAG, LLMs, embeddings)
- 📣 Developer Relations and technical content
- 🧪 OSS contributions and community mentorship
