I've been working to build some tools for detecting and monitoring lookalike domains - the kinds of things used in phishing / brand impersonation attacks.

My current prototype scans potential lookalikes for a target domain and then tracks DNS footprint over time. It's early, but functional - and makes it easier to understand if some lookalike domain is looking more "threat-y".

I've also been working on automating the processing of a parent-survey response for my kid's school using LLMs. The goal is to produce consistent summarization and statistics across multiple years and provide families with a clearer voice and helping staff and leadership at the school best understand what things have been working well (and where the school could improve).


It would be interesting if it monitored ownership changes for expired domains.

There are several really good products in this space FYI, but a new angle I'm sure can be competitive.


Location: Denver, CO

Remote: yes

Role: Staff+ Engineer, Tech Lead, Engineering Manager, or Co-founder

I'm a serial builder who thrives in the space between engineering and business. Over the last 10 years I've:

- Designed autonomous driving tech (Mercedes)

- Built threat detection systems + data platforms (Proofpoint)

- Led AI teams tackling real-world problems in support + finance (Velocity Global)

Pattern: I like taking hard technical problems, translating them into real-world value, and iterating fast with whoever's in the room — ops, finance, legal, you name it. I'm most useful where "that's not how we do things" isn't the end of the conversation.

Looking for a team that wants to build ambitious things and have a little fun along the way.

Technologies: Python, Go, SQL, AWS, Kafka, PostgreSQL, Kubernetes, Terraform, LLMs/GPT, Graph ML, Spark
