Self-taught full-stack engineer. Terminally curious. Allergic to "we've always done it this way."

I'm a generalist who likes hard, ambiguous problems and the satisfying click of shipping something real. 10+ years across startups, healthcare, enterprise modernization, B2B SaaS, web3, and AI — usually as the person they call when the org chart doesn't have a box for it yet.

• 🧩 Comfort zone: TypeScript / Node / Next.js / NestJS / Fastify / React, with detours into Python, PHP, Rust, and the occasional C#
• 🧪 Past lives: data engineering, frontend architecture, real-time collab, Web3/Solana, mobile electronics repair (yes, really)
• 👨‍👧‍👦 Dad to 3 small humans who keep the curiosity bar permanently set to "why?"
• 🌐 Personal site → tylerjfletcher.xyz (perpetually under construction, just like the rest of us)

I build a lot. These are the three I'm actively pouring evenings into right now:

A desktop-first investigative case workspace for fraud examiners and CFEs.

Tauri + Rust backend, Next.js UX, SQLite, native search and ingest — packaged as a real shippable desktop product, not a web app pretending to be one.

A pre-execution governance runtime for AI agents. Agents propose. Humans constrain. The runtime repairs. Arcade executes.

The interesting artifact isn't what the agent did — it's the co-authorship trace of how authority evolved before anything ran. Next.js 16, AI SDK 6, Claude, Drizzle/Postgres, real eval gates against real models. Live demo →

Self-hosted Supabase + Kong + n8n + pgvector + Ollama — one Docker stack, batteries included.

For people who want to own the data path and skip the SaaS-stitching tax. One command spins up auth, vector search, workflow automation, local LLMs, seeded RAG + builder agents, and a validation suite. (15 ⭐ and climbing)

_{If you build weird things, ship fast, or want to nerd out about agents, search, or how to keep a codebase from collapsing under its own weight — say hi.}
