Brian Gershon is a Senior Full-Stack Engineer in Seattle with 15 years building resilient web and mobile systems and a recent focus on AI-first product development. He designs and ships LLM-powered experiences—RAG chatbots, ReAct agents, custom ChatGPTs—and pairs model selection and automated evals with pragmatic data schema and infra (Postgres, S3, Pinecone). Equally comfortable in TypeScript/React front ends and Python back ends, he leverages GenAI to speed development while preserving maintainability and scalability. His background spans platform and developer-experience leadership at Unity, blockchain and web3 work, and founding multiple developer communities and companies. Notably, he turns social data into conversational personas (open-sourced after a Forum3 hackathon) and has a track record of mentoring engineers and improving product dev workflows.
