He is exploring software engineering opportunities focused on AI agents, LLM applications, and backend systems. Can’s strongest work centers on making AI applications retain knowledge, manage changing information, and operate reliably over time. As a Founding Software Engineer at Luhono, he built persistent memory and context-management systems for personal AI agents, including hybrid vector and keyword retrieval, asynchronous conversation compaction, and memory storage and indexing pipelines. The memory and context-management pipeline scored 78.8 on LoCoMo, 57.4 on LongMemEval, and 97.7% on retrieval-only evaluation. At DSALTA, Can developed multi-tenant RAG and agentic LLM workflows for enterprise compliance-policy generation and editing, as well as an LLM-powered crawler for B2B lead discovery and company profiling. His earlier work includes an AI-powered telecom-support chatbot at Netsia and a React-based task-management platform at ERA Consulting Services. Can holds a BS in Computer Science from UC Irvine. ## Services - Pydantic AI - SQLite - Go \(Programming Language\) - PyTorch - Pygame - AWS Lambda - Streamlit - Amazon Web Services \(AWS\) - Amazon Dynamodb - Natural Language Processing \(NLP\) - Machine Learning - Generative AI - Large Language Models \(LLMs\) - FastAPI - PostgreSQL - Redis - Gradio - Hugging Face - ChatGPT API - Retrieval-Augmented Generation \(RAG\) - AI Chatbot Development - RESTful API - Asynchronous Programming - Python - Node.js - Express.js - React.js - Microsoft SQL Server - R \(Programming Language\) - Android Development ## Highlights - Built persistent memory systems for personal AI agents at Luhono using Python and Go. - Separated episodic conversation history from curated knowledge in Luhono’s agent-memory architecture. - Combined Chroma vector search with SQLite FTS5 keyword retrieval for hybrid memory retrieval at Luhono. - Implemented background indexing with crash recovery and fact supersession for AI-agent memory at Luhono. - Developed asynchronous context compaction for long-running agent conversations using token-based thresholds, background LLM summarization, and retention of recent messages. - Evaluated Luhono’s memory and context-management pipeline at 78.8 on LoCoMo, 57.4 on LongMemEval, and 97.7% on retrieval-only evaluation. - Designed and deployed a multi-tenant RAG pipeline on Vertex AI Vector Search with Gemini at DSALTA. - Enabled context-aware question answering and automated compliance-policy generation over ingested enterprise documents at DSALTA. - Built agentic LLM workflows with Gemini 2.5 Pro and GPT-4.1, using function-calling patterns to automate compliance-policy creation and editing. - Developed an LLM-powered intelligent web crawler for automated B2B lead discovery and company profiling using grounded search. - Built and deployed an AI-powered telecom-support chatbot at Netsia with FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, and Gradio. - Integrated GPT-4 and Hugging Face models for automated Tier-2 telecom support at Netsia. - Designed asynchronous conversation management, session-based authentication, streaming responses, and a real-time chat UI for the Netsia chatbot. - Reduced manual support workload through intelligent ticket classification and escalation at Netsia. - Developed a ReactJS task-management web application integrated with an MSSQL server at ERA Consulting Services. - Designed reusable ReactJS components for a modular and maintainable codebase at ERA Consulting Services. - Used Node.js and Express.js for API development and database queries at ERA Consulting Services. - Presented ReactJS core concepts, benefits, and practical web-development applications to the ERA Consulting Services team. ## Experience - **Founding Software Engineer at Luhono Inc** (2026-07-01–2026-10-01) — Built persistent memory systems for personal AI agents in Python and Go, separating episodic conversation history from curated knowledge and combining Chroma vector search with SQLite FTS5 keyword retrieval.
