Sanscourier.ai: AI for the people

CTO & Co-Founder, Mocksi: supported by a16z Speedrun, Character Labs, Deftly, and Upside Partnership.

Over the last decade, I’ve helped build and scale some of the internet’s most recognizable platforms, from early social networks to modern AI systems.

As an engineer and founder, I’ve led or advised across five successful exits, including:

Yammer → Microsoft ($1.2B)

Nextdoor (IPO)

Do.com → Amazon

Gixo → OpenFit

Must Win → Lyric

At Nextdoor, I helped scale global infrastructure by 200% in under two months during the COVID surge.

At Yammer, I rebuilt the push notification pipeline into a horizontally scalable system capable of delivering over a billion messages per second.

At Oracle, I authored the first Terraform provider for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI): a move that helped Oracle compete at AWS and Azure scale.

And at Cisco, I co-designed an open-source Heroku-style platform built on a Kubernetes/Mesos hybrid, way ahead of its time.

Through my side venture SansCourier, I focus on AI infrastructure, principal engineering engagements, and founder acceleration: helping teams turn ambitious ideas into working systems that scale.
