Three Core Solo-Delivery Engineering Pillars
When an agency or prime contractor awards a task order to Paladin Front, the senior engineer on the technical call is the exact engineer writing the production code, training the model weights, and signing the commit log. I eliminate subcontractor pass-through bloat and junior handoff risk.
1. Full-Stack & Mobile Application Engineering
React, Next.js, TypeScript, Python/FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Native iOS/Android, REST/gRPC APIs, USWDS, Section 508 / WCAG 2.2 AA compliance, and legacy codebase triage/modernization.
- U.S. Web Design System (USWDS 3.0) & Section 508 / WCAG 2.2 AA accessible interfaces
- Offline-first native mobile field apps (iOS / Android / Flutter) for disconnected environments
- Rapid legacy PHP/Java/.NET codebase rescue, CISA KEV patching & zero-trust API hardening
2. Production AI, Agentic Workflows & Air-Gapped LLMs
Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) with line-by-line citation grounding, multi-agent tool-calling orchestration, local/air-gapped LLM fine-tuning via QLoRA (proven on Paladin-1), and computer vision pipelines.
- Zero-egress local LLM fine-tuning (QLoRA / PEFT) deployable inside air-gapped / IL4+ boundaries
- Cryptographically hash-verified RAG with exact paragraph & page citation traceability
- Multi-agent document intake & classification (proven in production on RemotePatriot.com)
3. Data Science, Forecasting & Sensor/Operational Analytics
Epidemiological and demand forecasting, Monte Carlo scenario modeling, automated ETL/ELT pipelines, geospatial/sensor data fusion, and executive decision dashboards.
- Probabilistic Monte Carlo readiness & supply-chain surge simulations with P10/P50/P90 intervals
- Biomedical & clinical corpus synthesis (proven on 52,000+ studies at Nootropic.ai)
- Automated hydrographic, environmental & C4ISR telemetry ETL pipelines
4. DoD Manpower, Administrative & Legal Workflow Modernization
Engineered directly from active-duty battalion staff experience at 8th Engineer Support Battalion (8th ESB), 2d Marine Logistics Group (2d MLG), Camp Lejeune, NC—digitization and automated QA of military manpower readiness (PERSTAT), Defense Travel System (DTS) voucher auditing, legal/disciplinary case tracking, Congressional Inquiry workflows, and veteran transition platforms (RemotePatriot.com).
Procurement Paths & Contracting Authorities
I structure federal and state/local engagements for rapid obligation and deterministic milestone delivery—supporting direct SDVOSB Sole-Source awards, VA Vets First priority, Simplified Acquisition Quotes, Government Purchase Card (GPC) micro-purchases, and Prime Subcontracting as a Similarly Situated Entity.
| Procurement Path | Statutory Authority | Threshold / Ceiling | Acquisition Mechanics & 13 CFR § 125.6 Compliance |
|---|---|---|---|
SDVOSB Sole-Source Award | FAR 19.1406 | Up to $5.0M | Direct sole-source contract award to a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business when the Contracting Officer determines no reasonable expectation of two or more SDVOSB offers at fair market price. Streamlined Justification & Approval (J&A); bypasses protracted multi-month competitive protest cycles. |
VA Vets First Sole-Source & Set-Aside | VAAR 819.7007 / 38 U.S.C. § 8127 | Up to $5.0M | Mandatory statutory priority for SDVOSBs across all VA procurements under the Rule of Two and direct sole-source authority up to $5.0M. Highest socioeconomic contracting priority inside the Department of Veterans Affairs. |
SDVOSB Competitive Set-Aside | FAR 19.1405 | No Statutory Ceiling | Competitive acquisitions reserved exclusively for verified SDVOSBs when at least two responsible SDVOSBs are expected to submit fair market offers. 100% self-performed by the Principal Engineer in strict compliance with 13 CFR § 125.6. |
Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) | FAR Part 13 | Under $350,000 | Rapid fixed-price RFQ awards below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold ($350K) for production software sprints, RAG/AI pilots, and data pipelines. Ideal for 30-to-60 day working software deliveries with milestone acceptance. |
Federal Micro-Purchase (GPC / P-Card) | FAR 13.2 | Under $10,000 | Immediate same-day execution via Government Purchase Card (GPC) for forensic codebase audits, ATO readiness assessments, and prototype slices. No competitive solicitation required below the $10,000 micro-purchase threshold. |
Prime Subcontracting (Similarly Situated Entity) | 13 CFR § 125.6(c) | Task Order Scoped | Subcontracting execution that counts directly toward SDVOSB and Small Disadvantaged Business (SDB) subcontracting goals without triggering ostensible subcontractor affiliation. Available as a high-velocity technical surge cell for IDIQs, OASIS+, SEWP, and agency BPA holders. |
