## Experience
|
||
|
||
### PixelPoint Ltd. — Tech Lead & AI Engineer, PrimeUI
|
||
**Feb 2025 – Present** · France · Remote
|
||
AI-native website generation platform ([primeui.com](https://primeui.com/), launched Feb 2026) building professional-grade, production-ready code. Drove ~70% of platform architecture across AI layer, sitemap canvas, server runtime, public API, MCP server, CLI, code-export pipeline, and component registry.
|
||
|
||
- **Cut client-wireframe turnaround at PixelPoint** from a week of Figma prototyping to a few hours: deployed prototypes with real desktop/mobile responsive components, production-level web performance, and dynamic interactions instead of static mockups.
|
||
- **Designed, built, and published MCP server** (`@primeuicom/mcp` on NPM, official TypeScript SDK) as the integration layer letting any external codebase (no PrimeUI export required) connect to PrimeUI from inside AI coding environments. 25 tools exposing project management and AI-driven page creation. Tested and tuned across 6 major AI coding agents, including Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex.
|
||
- **Architected end-to-end AI generation layer**: multi-model orchestration via Mastra + Vercel AI SDK Gateway (10 agents, 17 workflows), with per-task model routing: Claude Opus 4.6 (Studio chat), GPT-5.2 (outline + section writer), Gemini 2.5 Flash with cached component library (block planning), Claude Haiku 4.5 (short-form tasks).
|
||
- **Built RAG-based component retrieval**: 1,555 markdown chunks across 204 components, indexed with OpenAI `text-embedding-3-small` (1536d, 256/32 overlap), cosine top-K with three-tier fallback (exact key → family bucket → semantic).
|
||
- **Built quality guardrails and observability for AI page generation**: deterministic rule-based UX scoring for candidate ranking, JSON + props-schema validation with retry recovery (5 retries; triggers: parse, schema, rate-limit), per-step token / latency / cache-hit logging.
|
||
- **Optimized cost-quality balance**: 73% Gemini context-cache hit rate via 24-hour TTL on the component library, ~150K input tokens per page variant across ~9 components and ~5 retrievals, 2–3 min end-to-end latency for the default 3-variant page generation.
|
||
- **Designed code-export pipeline and CLI**: generates a project repo in ~45 sec, ~1.5 min end-to-end from UI Export to a running local project. Output is a production-ready Next.js application with embedded AI tooling, customer-owned and pre-configured for 8 selectable AI coding agents.
|
||
- **Drove team-wide AI-augmented development**: introduced Claude Code from project start, authored team skills and CLAUDE.md conventions, led the team's transition to Codex-based workflow ahead of public release. Built [codex-bee](https://github.com/usulpro/codex-bee) (CLI wrapper for long-running Codex sessions) and [epic-loop](https://github.com/usulpro/epic-loop) (Codex skill framework with tech-lead and developer agent roles for autonomous large-task-list execution) as a result.

|
||
- **Led migration of 15+ client projects to Headless CMS platforms** (Sanity, Storyblok, Contentful, Payload), restructuring content models and reducing update cycles from weeks to days. Used Claude.ai to analyze inherited codebases, identifying weak points and integration surfaces ahead of migration design.
|
||
- **Built a Claude-based content automation pipeline**: JSON translation flow for 190 country-specific Storyblok pages, integrated into the publishing process and saving ~1 month of manual content work.
