Product-minded Senior Full-Stack AI Engineer

Available for product & engineering work

Michael Ambel

I build production AI products end-to-end - from product workflows and what users need, through agents, LLM pipelines, payments, and the infrastructure that keeps them reliable and affordable at scale.

Production AI app-builder: prompts become deployed full-stack apps. Owned product workflows and platform engineering together - how users build, preview, and publish, and the systems behind it. Cut LLM cost 67% per step, built multi-agent AI Employees with Slack + ElevenLabs connectors, ran a live Stripe migration, and owned builder reliability on cloud sandbox infrastructure.

OpenClaude

Sole Engineer

Built soloPre-release

Open-source desktop app that lets Claude operate your computer - screenshots in, real mouse and keyboard actions out. Sole engineer: owned the product and safety model end-to-end for Windows and macOS - Electron shell, local agent harness, DPI-aware cross-platform automation, and a fail-closed approval model with human gates, cost caps, and kill switches.

Full-Stack Engineer

Agentic SEO platform: AI agents research keywords and rewrite site content. Shaped the product around a hard human-approval boundary - the agent proposes, humans publish. Built the WordPress plugin and one-click connect, per-post revision history, in-chat agent approval, and MCP tools consumed by Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor.

About

Product-minded senior full-stack AI engineer building production SaaS, agentic applications, and secure payment systems for teams worldwide. I figure out how the product should work, then I build and ship it.

Senior engineer on Shipper.now's AI app builder, where I owned product workflows, agent reliability, LLM cost engineering, and payments. At MindProbe.ai I grew from full-stack into owning the product end-to-end - requirements, workflows, architecture, and production. Shipped agentic SEO on Conqueror and solo-built OpenClaude. Founded Profica.ai.

Strongest where product and engineering meet.
