KeySplash
A calm, ad-free keyboard toy for toddlers. Every key shows a card and says it aloud. Works offline.
Principal Software Engineer, AI · Okta · Toronto
Platforms, teams, and production ML systems, built from scratch.
From 2023 to 2026 I founded and scaled Sanofi’s first AI engineering organization to 70+ people across Toronto, Paris, and Boston. Before that, four years on Loblaw’s pricing, promotion, and segmentation platforms. On my own time I build KeySplash and Eonmark.
01 About
Make good models easier to build, ship, and operate, then build the team and standards that keep it that way.
I work at Okta as a Principal Software Engineer, AI. At Sanofi I built the AI engineering organization from zero: 7 direct reports, 30+ FTEs, and 40+ contractors, reporting to the VP of R&D. Earlier: Customer AI at Petco (via ShyftLabs), four years at Loblaw across data engineering and MLOps, and audience-data pipelines at Numeris.
- Design for reliability and repeatability from day one.
- Prefer reusable platform leverage over one-off heroics.
- Make tradeoffs explicit: cost, speed, complexity, ownership.
- Build teams and standards that improve over time.

04 Contact
LinkedIn is best.
Send me a message on LinkedIn. For KeySplash or Eonmark, a GitHub issue is better: the answer stays where the next person can find it.
