Software Engineer at Microsoft
Built the drag-and-drop page using React, managing layout state across different sections. Implemented the live web app preview that renders Claude’s generated HTML instantly. Also created the real-time display of Claude’s code running, making the AI’s reasoning visible and interactive.

Matthew Feroz RSVP Approved
Software Engineer at ALIVE Company
Came up with the original concept of replacing the chat window with a drag-and-drop, AI-powered interface. Designed the overall frontend structure and interaction flow, shaping how user actions translate into AI reasoning. Helped define the core experience where the interface itself is the main innovation.
Software Engineer with a passion for building AI apps and tooling while also creating content.

Andrei Korchagin RSVP Approved
Staff Business Engineer, AI at Meta
Acted as the human steering Claude, helping unblock it and guiding it through backend research, coding, and building the agent loop. Built the Node.js/Express backend, set up WebSocket communication, and integrated Claude through the CLI. Focused on making the system stable so AI-generated output could reliably update the interface in real time.
I’m a self-taught software engineer, with a couple of former entrepreneurial detours and I’m currently a staff-level Business Engineer (basically a combination of a GTM engineer and an FDE) at Meta working on agentic systems for businesses. I live in NYC with my wife and dog and love to run and travel.
Really just learning from other smart folks about how they use and develop with AI and staying at the frontier of this rapid change in our industry and world, very curious in all dimensions from technical to marketing and beyond.
At work I build agentic systems for businesses of all sizes across my company’s products. At home I tinker on automating software development and hacking together various pet projects and learning journeys. I love working with and evolving the agentic harnesses that I use in both places.
