IT - CAD - Applied AI Engineer
I design local LLM agentic processes and Model Context Protocol servers that connect natural language to complex software APIs — from parametric CAD engines to ERP data pipelines.
01 · About
I'm an Applied AI Engineer and systems architect building intelligent automation for manufacturing, CAD, and operations. I design local LLM agents and Model Context Protocol servers that connect natural language to complex software APIs.
A background that spans IT and SQL Server infrastructure, BI and ERP data integration, endpoint security investigations, and running a solo mechanical CAD consultancy. I bridge industrial software, business stakeholders, and AI tooling.

A handful of things I've built or shipped.
AI assistant that drives a CAD platforms via natural language using a local LLM, custom MCP server with 17+ tools, and .NET interop. Features a RAG database of 200+ API documents for grounded tool selection. AutoCAD, Solidworks, CadQuery, HiCAD.
Desktop parametric CAD applications, PDF export, and corporate installer deployment.
Manufacturing intelligence and BI architecture connecting the company ERP to operational dashboards. Mapped SQL Server production topology, designed read-only reporting views, and deployed Docker dev environments when needed.
Saw a Reddit challenge: someone posted a tough 2D drawing and asked if anyone could model it. Couldn't resist. Converted it to a full 3D model and shared it via Autodesk Viewer — and couldn't help inscribing CADCOLABS.COM on all three sides of the flange.
Parametric spiral staircase modeled in AutoCAD. Full 3D geometry — stringers, treads, and handrail — ready for fabrication. Spin it around in the viewer.
