Lead generation technology, end to end.
From AI / social / search intent to a routed, monetized, accountable lead.
Let the machines talk, and let the humans think ahead.
I build the technology behind lead generation — demand capture, optimized funnels, publisher and advertiser integration, real-time distribution, call systems, and the AI agents that automate the plumbing between them — at billion-request-a-day scale, driving more than $2B in revenue for enterprise companies. Financial lead systems are where I go deepest, but the same stack drives any vertical.
Proven at Scale
Built for volume, not demos.
These systems run in production under real traffic, real buyers, and real money — where a slow response or a bad route costs revenue immediately.

Since 2005
Twenty years. Every shift in the technology.
I've been building lead generation technology since 2005 — routing traffic, filtering it, and raising or lowering a lead's value in real time based on its attributes. The channels and the technology have changed continuously; the discipline hasn't. I've built through every wave rather than arriving at the end of one.
Search
SEO and SEM as the original demand engines — earning and buying intent at the source.
Social
Audience-driven traffic and entirely new intent signals to capture and qualify.
Third-Party Traffic
Publisher networks and external supply — volume that only works with real filtering.
Automated Integration
Systems and partners wired together automatically instead of by hand, every time.
AI Agents
Agent-capable automated delivery — AI handling integration, qualification, and routing.
What I Build
The whole stack, stage by stage.
This stack is vertical-agnostic. The same pipeline that runs financial leads runs insurance, home services, legal, solar, education, or anything else with a buyer on the other end — only the attributes, filters, and pricing rules change.
Most people in this industry specialize in one stage and hand off the rest. I build and operate the whole path — so the funnel, the routing, the phone call, and the reporting all speak to each other instead of fighting each other.
Multi-Source Demand
High-intent traffic from every source — AI, SEO, SEM, social, email, SMS, and push notifications.
Funnel Optimization
Conversion funnels and the technology behind them — capturing user information cleanly.
Integration
Onboarding external publishers and connecting advertisers and buyers in real time.
Distribution
Ping-post and real-time routing — the right lead to the right buyer at the right price.
Multi-Channel Delivery
However the buyer consumes it — clicks, calls, leads, SMS, email, and push — with AI qualification along the way.
Reporting
Accountable delivery — transparent tracking, attribution, and consent at every step.
What I bring to a lead operation — the mechanics that decide whether it makes money or leaks it.
Traffic Routing & Filtering
Directing traffic to where it performs and filtering out what doesn't qualify — before it costs you a buyer relationship.
Dynamic Lead Valuation
Raising or lowering a lead's value in real time based on its attributes — so every lead sells for what it's actually worth.
Ping-Post & Real-Time Bidding
Auctioning every lead across buyers in milliseconds — ping the attributes, collect bids, award at the best accepted price, and post the full record only to the winner.
Pixel & Conversion Feedback
Real-time pixel delivery and conversion updates into Google, Bing/Yahoo, and Meta — closing the loop so the ad platforms optimize on what actually converts.
Publisher Integration
Onboarding and integrating external publishers as lead sources — the sell side of the marketplace, without months of engineering back-and-forth.
Advertiser Integration
Connecting advertisers and buyers to consume leads in real time — the buy side, its contracts, and its delivery guarantees.
Call Infrastructure
Call tracking and routing over SIP/VoIP on PBX systems like Asterisk and Five9 — plus Twilio and ElevenLabs for AI voice agents.
Agent Automation
AI agents applied to the ping-post pipeline — automating the integration work between publishers, advertisers, and call systems.
Reporting Systems
Performance analytics on Redshift and Snowflake — knowing what each source, funnel, and buyer is actually worth.
Architecture
Distributed systems design and Kubernetes orchestration across AWS, GCP, and Azure — infrastructure that holds up when volume and buyers multiply.
A lead isn't one shape. I deliver across every channel buyers actually consume — and the integrations carrying them are built and validated by AI agents rather than by hand.
Clicks
Click traffic routed and monetized in real time, with full attribution back to the source.
Calls
Inbound and transferred calls over SIP/VoIP, with pay-per-call accounting and AI qualification.
Leads
Structured lead records posted to buyers in real time, priced on their attributes.
SMS
Text delivery and follow-up with consent tracked at every step.
Email delivery with authenticated sending, deliverability, and engagement feedback.
Pop-up Notifications
Push notifications to Android and iOS — reaching users directly on device.
Plenty of people can run campaigns. Fewer can build the systems underneath them. I came up through hardware, telecom, and distributed systems — so when a lead platform needs a real-time call path, a data warehouse, or an integration that doesn't break at volume, I build it myself rather than wait on a vendor.
Telecom & VoIP
SIP, IAX, and Secure RTP across PBX systems — from contact centers to mission-critical telecom and avionics voice.
Software & Mobile
C/C++, Java, Python, and full-stack JavaScript / TypeScript / Node.js, plus cross-platform mobile apps for iOS and Android.
Data & Platform
Reporting and analytics on Redshift and Snowflake, Kubernetes orchestration, and production deployments across AWS, GCP, and Azure.
AI & Agents
AI systems and autonomous agent orchestration — turning manual integration and qualification work into automated pipelines.
Hardware & Electrical
FPGA logic, electronics, power electronics and NEC-versed electrical systems, robotics — and an Amateur Extra (AD0YA) RF background.
Leadership
Over ten years leading and managing teams — delegation and getting work done through other people is its own discipline.
AI-automated integration. No manual intervention.
Standing up a new partner normally means engineers, documentation, and weeks of back-and-forth. I build integrations that assemble themselves — AI agents handle the mapping, the delivery, and the validation. Every field checked and every payload verified by agents, with no human in the loop.

About
One engineer, the whole stack.
I work across layers most engineers only touch one of. I started at the metal — FPGA logic and electronics — went deep on power, electrical and RF communication (Amateur Extra, AD0YA), and built software in C/C++, Java, Python and the full JavaScript/TypeScript/Node stack. Today I focus on AI systems and agent automation, applied to lead generation.
The through-line isn't any single technology — it's architecture. I design distributed systems and the structure that makes them scale, hold together, and last.
Away from the bench, I throw pottery on the wheel — the same hands-on making, in clay.
