Supply Chain Software I’ve Built

I don’t just recommend tools. I build them. I’ve designed and built supply chain software programs in Python and SQL, using AI-assisted development with Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, and Gemini.

  • Demand Forecasting & S&OP Planning: programs that support demand forecasting and sales and operations planning.
  • Inventory: tools for inventory planning and management.
  • Supplier-Risk Visibility: programs that give visibility into supplier risk.

How I build software with AI

AI-Assisted Software Development

Building Software with AI

I use AI to develop software. AI-assisted development is how I design and build my supply chain software programs in Python and SQL, working with Cursor, Claude, ChatGPT, Grok, and Gemini as AI pair-programmers.

I bring the supply chain and data knowledge; AI tools help me generate, review, debug, and test the code, build data pipelines, and automate workflows.

Defense & Aerospace Supply Chain: Pratt & Whitney (2014 – 2015)

As Supply Chain Manager at Pratt & Whitney, I worked on parts for the F100 engine, which powers the F-15 and F-16:

  • Purchasing: buying engine parts
  • Delivery: keeping parts moving on schedule
  • Warehousing: managing parts storage and flow
  • SAP scheduling: planning and scheduling in SAP
  • Reorder points and safety stock: setting inventory levels to keep supply reliable

Defense supply chains have no room for error. That experience shapes how I approach every supply chain today, and it’s why I’m committed to strengthening the U.S. defense industrial base.

Open to Contracting and New Roles
