From Operations to Agent Systems: The Path Behind the Work

An inside look at the engineering discipline behind the work—bridging IT operations, AXA France claims quality workflows through Teleperformance, DRC EV lithium CAPEX modeling, and governed agent architectures.

Background & Method

From Operations to Verifiable Agent Systems

Casablanca, Morocco · Open to US Relocation

Before building software, I spent years working across IT operations, B2B sales, entrepreneurship, industrial project development, and insurance operations. Those environments taught me to look for the same things: where responsibility becomes ambiguous, where information is lost, where a decision cannot be explained, and where a process depends on memory instead of evidence.

I later translated that operating experience into TypeScript systems, developer tools, and governed AI workflows. My work is grounded in a broader thesis: autonomy should increase an agent's freedom to execute without allowing it to redefine intent, evidence, or authority. Read the essay →

What Jordach Builds

01 · Orchestration Framework

Shokunin Harness

A production framework replacing ad-hoc prompting with strict role separation (Coder, Tester, Reviewer), persistent context management (<10K tokens), and 5 mechanical validation gates before code commit.

02 · Open Web Specification

index-ai (v1.0-rc1)

An open proposal allowing websites to present a verifiable, structured, and token-efficient representation to AI crawlers. Eliminates HTML bloat and client-rendered empty DOM failures.

03 · Discovery Platform

Agent View

A web platform and scanner revealing the 60-second "Visual Gap" between human browser rendering and raw AI crawler text extraction, evaluating reachability, extractability, and render independence.

04 · Industrial Engineering

EV Battery Initiative ($7.7B CAPEX)

Co-founded Atlanta Compa International, mapping a rock-to-EV-battery industrial value chain in the DRC with 9–10 industrial installations and 35MW steam-electric cogeneration systems.

★ Reviewed & Supported : Project reviewed and supported by Dr. Lonnie Johnson, American inventor, aerospace engineer, and entrepreneur best known for inventing the bestselling Super Soaker water gun in 1989. He previously served in the U.S. Air Force and worked at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL).
