Michael Litchev is a customer engineer and full-stack software architect with a decade of experience building agentic AI tooling, developer SDKs, and data-dense web platforms. Currently at Mastra, he advances TypeScript SDKs and cloud tools for agentic workflows, and previously founded Expatria where he integrated on-device LLMs, automated agentic pipelines, and complex mapping/data products. He has shipped cross-platform mobile and web systems at scale (Flutter, React, Node.js) and run end-to-end infrastructure including CI/CD, AWS, and performant front-end architectures. Michael pairs hands-on engineering with user research and product leadership, having led customer onboarding, on-call incident response, and UX-driven improvements. He’s also an author (pen name Michael Nightingale) who took time to write a travelogue about China, which underscores his appetite for deep cultural research and clear storytelling. Based in Seattle, he blends entrepreneurial grit with practical ML/agent integration experience and a knack for turning complex workflows into polished user experiences.
