Technical Program Manager

I build certification programs.
These are my AI experiments.

Ten years designing L&D and certification programs at Google and TikTok, with two additional years in front-line customer service. These are the AI systems I'm building in the domain I know best, with two already in flight at Intuit.

4 AI systems I built for L&D and certification.

These started as experiments. In practice I'm now using them at Intuit: the JTA Exam Builder Orchestra, with the AI Fluency Performance Based Exam in development.

The Exam AI Can't Take For You

AI can pass any technical test. This exam measures the person using it: part tabletop exercise, part live-fire lab, part AI role-play.

200 Point Rubric
7 Live Checks
150 Process Points

Every AI certification on the market tests what you know about AI. None of them can watch you work with one. This lab closes that gap: a live support case, a simulated customer, real infrastructure, and a grader that reads your coding agent's own transcripts as evidence. The walkthrough shows two candidates finish on identical green checks and land 90 points apart. The outcome was the AI's; the gap is the human's process, and the process is what gets certified.

How a session unfolds

  1. An AI customer opens a support case.
  2. You interview her naturally, in plain chat.
  3. She reveals new information only when you ask the right questions.
  4. Behind the scenes, a real lab environment changes state.
  5. You troubleshoot actual infrastructure with your own AI agent.
  6. The customer reacts to what you fix.
  7. The assessment engine scores the technical work objectively, with cited evidence.

JTA Exam Builder Orchestra

An attempt to put on autopilot a process I've been running by hand since Google.

14 AI Agents
5 Human Gates
22.5h Build Time

I've run exam design workshops and psychometric reviews professionally at TikTok and Google. This pipeline uses 14 AI agents to replicate that process: evidence gathering, SME simulation, bias review, and blueprint generation, with those standards in mind and not as a certified claim. Five human-in-the-loop gates keep a person in the decision chain. I built it independently; it's now in use at Intuit.

AI Fluency Performance Based Exam (V1)

An AI-graded hands-on exam environment. Built around an assessment model I've run on paper for most of my career.

Performance-based exams are the hardest part of certification design to get right. This system provisions an isolated coding environment per candidate, runs deterministic validation, then uses a four-dimension AI rubric (Delegation, Description, Discernment, Diligence) to assess how well they worked with AI. It grades what humans currently review, and it's now in development at Intuit. Its successor, the flagship above, moves the whole exam live and local.

AI-orchestrated pipeline that turns a program idea into a principle-driven, Bloom-aligned learning program, starting from learner pain, not company agenda.

11 AI Agents
8 Human Gates
L0→L3 Levels

Having designed learning programs at Google and TikTok, I wanted to see if AI could handle the full pipeline: audience pain discovery, core principles definition, Bloom-aligned curriculum design, formative assessment, and experience mapping. Eleven agents collaborate through eight human-in-the-loop gates, enforcing instructional design methodology at every step. Free learning funnels toward paid certifications. Built on the same orchestration pattern as the JTA Exam Builder.
