His industry experience spans residential and commercial real estate technology, cloud infrastructure, and financial technology. He has managed AI systems operating at significant production scale, launched enterprise AI assistants serving tens of thousands of users, and architected mission-critical payment and transaction-processing platforms for publicly traded enterprises. A polyglot technologist fluent across both major and independent cloud providers, Eric is an avid practitioner of agentic coding and currently works primarily with Cursor and Claude Opus 4.7.
