The architect at the center. The discipline that scales from wire to silicon.
Active portfolio. The work compounds. Every repo is a load-bearing artifact, not a placeholder.
I architect smart AI infrastructure and smart AI power infrastructure. 12+ years in the field: helper to journeyman to I&C tech to foreman to architect, across petrochemical, LNG, automotive manufacturing, and hyperscale data center construction. The same discipline that produces a dressed panel produces a managed rack, a thermal control loop, a battery failover system. The physical and the digital are the same craft applied at different scales.
Every repo demonstrates a piece of the same discipline applied at a different scale. Field craft, AI infrastructure, hardware design, research, workshop reality. The through-line is craftsmanship: build it once, build it well, document it so the next person never has to guess.
The portfolio is the proof. Not a slide deck. Not a pitch. The work shows itself.

Every YOSO-YAi product is a living mind first, its specialization second. Four surfaces compose the DNA: Brain (accumulated knowledge), Experiences (immutable history), Nerves (automated workflows), Chat (conversations the work creates). The 12U rack in the studio ships this pattern end to end. Every product the company designs inherits it.
The arc starts with pulling wire. Fluor Corporation, McDermott, SST, MMR. Conduit bending, raceway installation, learning to read prints. Then instrumentation and controls at Tesla's Gigafactory: sensor integration, PLC logic, the transition from power to controls. Then foreman at Meta NightCrawler: running crews, managing quality on mission-critical electrical infrastructure where a single fault means millions in downtime.
The arc ends with designing the systems instead of installing them. KiCad for electrical, Fusion 360 for mechanical, NVIDIA Omniverse for spatial composition. The same person who dressed panels at Tesla now designs the Rack Intelligence Board. The same discipline that keeps a 480V switchgear from faulting keeps an AI fleet thermally stable. The craft scales. The posture does not change.

YOSO-YAi is an infrastructure-tech company. We design, research, develop, and innovate smart AI infrastructure and smart AI power infrastructure. The same craft mindset that produces a dressed panel produces a managed rack, a thermal control loop, a battery failover system. The company was founded by someone who pulled wire before writing firmware. The physical discipline and the digital discipline are the same discipline applied at different scales. yoso-yai.com
