05 / Engineering approach

From problem framing to operational feedback

01

Frame the problem

Clarify the workflow, constraints, users, and definition of success.

02

Design the system

Define service boundaries, data paths, security controls, and failure modes.

03

Build for delivery

Implement maintainable services and automate repeatable build and release work.

04

Observe and improve

Validate outcomes, expose useful signals, and iterate from operational feedback.

07 / Engineering notes

How I think about building these systems

Short write-ups on evaluating document-AI pipelines, designing review steps people can use, and what I would do differently next time.

6 min read

What I changed after my first RAG system

Building a retrieval-augmented assistant for warehouse operations taught me that most of my problems were retrieval problems wearing a generation costume.
