Hi, I'm Kartik.
I build AI products for the back-office problems I spent six years inside: payroll, commissions, reconciliation, vendor file exchange. Enterprise payroll systems engineer for Fortune 500 clients, now Oracle Fusion HCM certified, shipping agentic and LLM applications that non-technical operators run every day.
Six years inside enterprise payroll, now building the tools it was missing — one path, scroll to follow it.
