About
The operator
behind the systems.
I studied mechanical engineering because I wanted to understand how things actually work, not just what they do. Every system has a structure underneath it: constraints, inputs, feedback loops, failure modes. Understanding that structure is how you build something durable instead of something that just looks like it works.
A Master's in Marketing Management came later, but the engineering lens followed me into it. I kept encountering the same gap: teams spending budget without understanding attribution, publishing content without distribution architecture, running campaigns without conversion infrastructure. The problem was never effort. It was always structure.
Today I build the structure that was missing. Paid acquisition, SEO, AI workflows, attribution, and analytics treated as one system instead of five parallel tactics. The work is less about producing more output and more about removing the parts that were never going to compound in the first place.
I have an adventurous mindset. I'm drawn to problems that require both precision and intuition. The kind where you need a framework to understand what you're even looking at, but where the insight itself comes from somewhere else entirely.

Definition
What is marketing engineering?
Marketing engineering is the practice of treating paid acquisition, organic SEO, AI workflow automation, attribution, and conversion infrastructure as one engineered system rather than five parallel tactics. The work prioritises measurement, feedback loops, and compounding leverage over campaign output, the same way a software team treats observability, CI, and architecture before shipping a feature.
A marketing engineer ships systems with documentation, kill criteria, attribution baked in before spend, and structural decisions defended against the next quarter's roadmap. The artefact is a working pipeline a founder can operate or hand off, not a slide deck. The term overlaps with growth engineering and growth systems consulting; what they share is engineering rigor applied to growth work that historically sat outside engineering.
Principles
How I think.
Systems over campaigns.
A campaign is an event. A system is infrastructure. Infrastructure compounds. Events decay.
Measurement before spend.
If you can't measure it, you can't improve it. Every channel I build starts with the attribution layer, not the creative.
AI as leverage, not replacement.
AI tools extend what a small team can do. They don't replace strategic thinking. They amplify it.
Clarity beats cleverness.
The best marketing is clear, relevant, and well-timed. Clever that confuses converts nothing.
Tools
The stack.
Acquisition
Webflow · Framer · Astro · Next.js
Landing pages and marketing sites built for speed, schema, and conversion. I ship in the framework the client already trusts.
Ads & Search
Google Ads · Meta Ads · LinkedIn Ads · Ahrefs · Search Console
Paid acquisition tuned by attribution, not vanity. Organic SEO built on a content-and-link strategy that survives algorithm cycles.
Automation & AI
Anthropic SDK · OpenAI · LangChain · n8n · Zapier · Make
Multi-agent pipelines, LLM output QC, and the glue code between them. AI as compounding leverage, not a one-shot prompt.
Measurement
GA4 · GTM · PostHog · Plausible · Mixpanel
Tracking spec, event taxonomy, and dashboards designed before any spend or content goes live. If it does not measure, it does not ship.
Experiments
VWO · GrowthBook · Statsig · Optimizely
A/B and feature-flag testing under a hypothesis-first brief. Kill criteria written before the test starts, not after.
Infrastructure
Supabase · Postgres · FastAPI · TypeScript · Vercel · Sentry
Production backends behind the marketing layer: auth, idempotent webhooks, per-tenant memory, error budgets. Engineering rigor where it pays back.
