Senior🎓
Top SchoolDean Keesey is a Generative AI Systems Architect with 15+ years of enterprise engineering experience who designs and runs production-scale AI and automation platforms from the edge to analytics pipelines. Currently building LLM-driven architecture governance at Wells Fargo, he specializes in multi-agent coordination, context architecture, failure-mode detection, and cost-aware model routing that routinely delivers 40–60% savings. As Fractional CTO for the Masumi Hayashi Foundation he manages a 523-page site serving 30K+ annual visitors with custom WAF, webhook-driven donation flows, and analytics clean-up that filtered 92% bot traffic—an example of applying rigorous production practices to cultural technology. His work reduces complex engineering sessions (6+ hours) down to 2 via shared-memory agent orchestration and replaces dashboards with proactive GA4→BigQuery→Slack delivery, showing a bias for operational simplicity and measurable outcomes. Based in the Bay Area, he blends deep frontend roots with modern cloud/edge architectures to make agentic AI reliable, auditable, and cost-effective.
