About

I’m Kaos Marquis Carter, a principal software engineer who builds AI-native platforms, reliable APIs, and production services end-to-end—from architecture through launch. Over the last decade, I’ve worked on multi-tenant RAG and agent systems, retrieval and reranking pipelines, and grounded response generation, with a strong focus on security, PII controls, and operational excellence.

I enjoy turning complex, ambiguous product needs into pragmatic architectures, instrumentation, and maintainable implementations. I’ve led platform modernization efforts, improved reliability using evaluation datasets and regression gates, and deployed scalable services on AWS and Kubernetes with SLO-based observability, canary rollouts, and incident playbooks.
