Bailey Seymour


Forward Deployed Engineer

I’m the engineer you send when the API doesn’t exist. I work directly with teams to understand what they actually need, then build the bridges — whether that means reverse-engineering a proprietary protocol, deploying an AI system that routes support tickets intelligently, or shipping a mobile app so the warehouse team can scan assets from their phone. I figure out what needs to exist and build it, in whatever stack the job requires.

Case Studies

AI/ML Automation Serverless
AI-Powered Ticket Routing (Tier 9)

Deployed a serverless AI system that automatically analyzes incoming support tickets, matches them to the most qualified team member based on expertise profiles, and provides detailed routing reasoning — all while stripping PII before data leaves the environment.

Mobile ML/Computer Vision Asset Management
ML-Powered Asset Tracking App

Built a cross-platform mobile app with ML-powered serial number scanning that improved asset data entry accuracy by 50%, deployed across IT operations for 250+ employees.

Dec 2023 - Present
Software Engineer – Enterprise Integration & Automation

Operated as a “Department of One” engineering unit embedded within IT, architecting full-stack platforms to modernize identity management, logistics, and asset operations. Transformed manual workflows into event-driven software ecosystems, delivering over $120k in annualized savings.

  • Identity Orchestration Platform (Zipline): Architected an event-driven IAM platform using FastAPI, RabbitMQ, and Redis to orchestrate user lifecycles across Active Directory, Exchange Online, and Entra ID. Replaced manual provisioning with a resilient microservices architecture.

  • IoT & Physical Operations (Dispatch): Bridged the physical-digital gap by engineering a logistics platform connecting EasyPost APIs with warehouse hardware. Built a custom Flutter mobile app for warehouse staff and developed containerized drivers (zpl-docker) to expose local Zebra thermal printers via REST API.

  • Asset Intelligence & Cost Recovery (Asset Manager): Identified a $10k/month bleed in untracked leased assets. Built Asset Manager, a Python/CLI integration engine that consolidates vendor financial data (Apple/Dell DFS/Lenovo/Insight) with RMM telemetry, resulting in $120,000/year savings in under 3 months.

  • AI Agent Deployment (Tier 9): Developed a serverless AI support agent using AWS Lambda and GPT-5-mini. Implemented LangChain for logic and Presidio for PII redaction to autonomously triage and route support tickets, reducing manual dispatch overhead.

  • Shared Infrastructure: Created niner-schemas, a proprietary Python library acting as a central contract layer to standardize data models across Finance, HR, and IT systems.

Tech Stack: Python FastAPI, Pandas, Docker, AWS (Lambda, IoT Core, EC2, ECS, API Gateway), RabbitMQ, Redis, Flutter/Dart, Github Actions

Independent Software Engineer

  • Reverse engineered a proprietary Lutron Homeworks protocol to build hwiclient, an open source Python client library, and integrated it with Home Assistant, Google Home, and Amazon Alexa — demonstrating ability to connect undocumented legacy systems to modern platforms.

  • Independently owned the full product lifecycle — from requirements and architecture through deployment and iteration — across multiple production Android applications.

  • Modernized legacy codebases by integrating Kotlin Coroutines and Jetpack components, meaningfully improving maintainability and reducing technical debt.

  • Maintained high code quality through comprehensive unit testing with JUnit, significantly reducing post-release bugs across multiple production applications.
