FOUNDING ENGINEER · MARCH–AUGUST 2026

Building
Mozart AI.

I worked across product and engineering: core creation surfaces, collaboration, onboarding, model evaluation, and the analytics used to decide what came next.

01

A Library built around songs

I took a songs-first Library redesign from product requirements to production, bringing generated music, alternate takes, playback, and editing into one surface. I owned the interface, state model, and service integration.

02

A studio you can share

I built real-time collaboration with authenticated rooms, durable session state, live tracks, mixer controls, MIDI, and collaborator presence. I also built the onboarding for joining and starting a shared session.

03

Learning by doing

I built onboarding that advances when a user performs the real gesture. Conditional steps, surface restoration, and event instrumentation made the tour measurable and resilient.

04

Model evaluation for music

I developed a TypeScript audio-evaluation harness around a 227-clip corpus, deterministic BPM, key, and lyric checks, and human A/B listening. I also worked on a LiveKit voice pipeline for music sessions, where voice activity and turn-taking have to contend with music in the room.

05

Evidence after the release

I defined typed PostHog event contracts and dashboards for creation, collaboration, and export. Funnel and cohort analysis identified friction and informed product decisions.
