Exploring the intersection of AI agents, warehouse control systems, and intelligent operations
Most AI narratives in supply chain stay at the strategy layer.
I'm interested in what happens at 3am when a sorter jams and the WCS has to decide.
I'm a PM with a background in enterprise warehouse automation — WCS, WES, material handling — now focused on where AI agents meet physical operations. I prototype, analyze, and document AI applications in the distribution center environment: routing intelligence, predictive maintenance, anomaly detection, and human-AI handoff in high-stakes warehouse settings.
This GitHub is my proof-of-work layer.

The dc-ai-use-cases repo is a structured breakdown of where AI/ML can create real value inside a distribution center — organized by:
- Application area (sortation, induction, labor, maintenance)
- Feasibility tier (Ready Now / 1-2 Years / Research Phase)
- Data requirements (what your WCS/WES needs to already be capturing)
- PM considerations (build vs. buy, integration complexity, change management)
Useful for: AI PMs, supply chain product leaders, and integration engineers evaluating AI roadmaps.
- Prototypes: Small working tools built with Python, Claude API, and occasionally Ignition scripting
- Frameworks: PM decision tools — when to build AI features, how to evaluate routing logic, how to spec LLM interfaces for operators
- Research notes: Public analysis of trends at the intersection of AI and material handling
- Writing cross-posts: Companion repos for my LinkedIn Articles and Medium pieces on AI in supply chain
- Agentic WCS: what does a Claude-powered exception handler look like for a sorter jam?
- Benchmark: rule-based routing vs. ML-assisted routing under variable throughput
- Operator UX for LLM interfaces: how do you design prompts for shift leads, not data scientists?
- AI readiness scoring model for distribution centers
"The distribution center is one of the most data-rich, AI-underserved environments in the enterprise.
That gap is the opportunity."
