James C. Young — AreteDriver

AI Enablement Engineer | Operational Intelligence | DevTools Python · Rust · TypeScript · Linux Systems · Full CI/CD

I apply lean manufacturing systems thinking to AI and software engineering. 17 years in enterprise operations (Toyota, IBM) before I touched a model. The result: systems that ship reliably, not just demo well.


What I Build

AI workflow orchestration — multi-agent pipelines with cost tracking, checkpointing, and structured feedback loops Document intelligence — investigative-grade ingestion, entity extraction, and co-occurrence analysis Developer tooling — CLI utilities for AI teams: spend tracking, agent auditing, context generation Production AI applications — autonomous content pipelines running at scale across multiple languages


Featured Projects

Animus — Multi-Agent Orchestration Framework

Coordinate specialized AI agents across enterprise workflows with budget controls, quality gates, and checkpoint/resume. FastAPI backend · React dashboard · Quorum coordination protocol (PyPI) · 13,100+ tests

BenchGoblins — AI Fantasy Sports Decision Engine

League-centric start/sit, trade analysis, and matchup projections. Live on Fly.io + Vercel. Next.js · FastAPI · PostgreSQL · Redis · Stripe · 1,988 tests · 99% coverage

DOSSIER — Document Intelligence Platform

Investigative-grade document analysis: ingest PDFs/emails/scans, extract named entities, surface co-occurrence relationships. SQLite FTS5 · Custom NER · Auto-classification · 1,055 tests · 97% coverage

agent-lint — Agent Workflow Auditor

CLI tool for cost estimation and anti-pattern detection in agent workflow YAML configs. PyPI Static analysis · 17 lint rules · CI integration · Zero LLM dependency

Argus Overview — Linux Multi-Window Manager for EVE Online

Real-time 30 FPS window previews, team management, auto-tiling layouts, EVE settings sync. 2,500+ downloads · 1,892 tests · 96% coverage


Dev Tools

Capability Evidence
Containerization Multi-stage Dockerfiles, docker-compose, templates
Kubernetes Deployments, HPA, Ingress, Kustomize, Helm chart
CI Pipelines Lint → test → SAST → build → deploy across Python, Rust, TypeScript
Security Scanning CodeQL + gitleaks + Bandit + Semgrep + Trivy + pip-audit
Live Deployments BenchGoblins on Fly.io + Vercel, 4 packages on PyPI via OIDC
Benchmarks Automated performance regression tracking on gh-pages (3 repos)

Technical Stack

Domain Tools
Languages Python, Rust, TypeScript
AI/ML Claude API, OpenAI, Ollama, multi-agent orchestration
Backend FastAPI, SQLite, PostgreSQL, Redis

Engineering Philosophy

Operational reliability over algorithmic elegance. A system that ships predictably beats a system that demos brilliantly. Standard work, visual management, poka-yoke — applied to software.
