Mike Rodgers — Forward Deployed Engineer


Mike Rodgers

I turn AI pilots into production systems you can defend in a board meeting.

Python TypeScript Postgres Docker Kubernetes Terraform OpenTelemetry

C++ Fortran JavaScript



One operator. One machine. Every receipt public.

Code owns decisions. Models assist transformation. Gates decide if it ships.


What I operate in production (right now)

System Scale Stack
Multi-agent platform 56 routes (31 Next.js/React pages, 23 TS APIs) · 1,147 Python modules · 244k lines · 159 test suites Python · TypeScript · Next.js · Vercel
Retrieval layer 61,987 pages · 116,158 chunks · 100% embedding coverage Postgres + pgvector · single-writer source-of-truth
Agent tooling 48 external tool servers behind one governed orchestration layer · MCP servers (555 + 276 lines) Model Context Protocol · permission-gated
Compute fleet 4-node self-hosted AI cluster · role-tiered (light/mid/heavy) · LAN-first with remote failover Docker · Kubernetes · self-hosted inference
Data pipeline 6-check promote-on-pass ingestion gate · single-flight read cache · row-level security Postgres · PostgREST · schema-validated

This is not a portfolio. This is a production system in daily use by a live operator.


Core competencies

Languages & Frameworks

  • Python (production services, 1,147+ modules)
  • TypeScript (23 API routes, Next.js/React UIs)
  • Vite + deterministic build starters
  • REST APIs, Webhooks, OAuth, Idempotency

Systems & Scientific Computing

  • C++ (performance-critical, HPC)
  • Fortran (scientific computing, numerical methods)
  • JavaScript (full-stack, operator-facing UIs)

AI / Agent Systems

  • LLM & Multi-Agent orchestration (RAG, tool calling)
  • Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers
  • Guardrail architecture & evaluation harnesses
  • Model Evaluation & LLM-as-Judge (automated eval pipelines, acceptance gates)
  • LLM Observability (OpenTelemetry traces, drift detection, agent tracing)
  • MLflow / Weights & Biases (experiment tracking, model registry)
  • pgvector retrieval at 116K+ chunk scale

Infrastructure & Data

  • Docker, Kubernetes, self-hosted inference
  • Terraform (infrastructure-as-code, multi-cloud provisioning)
  • Postgres with row-level security
  • pgvector, schema validation, single-flight caching
  • Airflow / Prefect (data pipeline orchestration)
  • CI/CD, GitHub Actions, release gates

Enterprise & Deployment

  • AWS, Azure, OCI, Cloudflare
  • EHR, CRM, ITSM integration
  • PII handling & regulated-environment compliance
  • Stakeholder Translation (executive ↔ engineering · clinical ↔ technical)
  • Customer-embedded discovery & scoping

Engineering artifacts

ProofPacket verification layer

Makes an AI agent's "done" claim cryptographically re-verifiable instead of taken on trust.

  • 60 modules · 252 tests passing · CLI · MCP server · signed run ledger · OpenTelemetry hooks
  • Tamper-detection path covered by its own dedicated test suite
  • Built because agent output that cannot be re-verified is why enterprise pilots stall in review
  • proof-studio · proof-gate-action

Multi-service agent orchestrator

CLI that boots and supervises a multi-service agent system with health checks and bounded restart behavior.

Three-layer build gate

Data validation → test global-setup → change verification. Fired in production this week and stopped a corrupt corpus from shipping.

Deterministic build starter (Vite + TypeScript)

Ships with a sealed, hash-verifiable ProofPacket so a build's provenance travels with the artifact.


Case studies (anonymized)

Client type Problem What I shipped Measured impact
PE portfolio company ($50M rev) Stuck AI pilot — RAG chatbot hallucinating in customer-facing demos 6-check ingestion gate + pgvector retrieval + confidence-gated responses Pilot → production in 90 days · 0 hallucinations in 30-day audit
Healthcare system ($6B rev) 3-hour ED wait times across 5 hospitals EmOpti teletriage integration into clinical workflow 3hrs → 15min · 130K+ patients · GWU Innovation Award
Enterprise SaaS (Oracle Cerner) External consultants costing $2M+/yr for competitive intel AI-powered CI system processing 150+ daily signals autonomously $35M opex reduction · replaced consultants entirely
Healthcare startup (EmOpti) Stalled growth mid-COVID, no enterprise sales motion Deployed telehealth into HCA + Advocate + Jefferson · built pipeline $10M Series A · 35% CAGR · $1M revenue Y1
