I build systems that make machines see—without the firehose of data.

Most AI today drowns in bandwidth. Raw video is too heavy, too slow, too expensive to move over the links that matter—drones, subsea vehicles, forward-deployed sensors. So I'm building OUTPOST at Mahamaia Systems: a neural feature compression codec that extracts meaning from the sensor before it ever hits the wire. The AI gets what it needs. The pipe stays lean.
