Maxwell Knight

Fullstack and systems. I build software and take it apart.

Fullstack and infrastructure engineer working across TypeScript and Python. I build web apps, developer tools, and data-heavy backends, and like taking low-level systems apart to see how they work.

Experience

Fleet AI · Software Engineer, Core Infrastructure and Platforms

Jun 2025 - Jul 2026

Fleet builds high fidelity replicas of real SaaS apps, the RL gyms that frontier AI labs use to train and evaluate agents.

  • Rebuilt the pipeline that fills 30+ simulated SaaS apps with realistic, reproducible seed data, cutting generation runtime by an order of magnitude with batched, parallel LLM calls.
  • Built high-fidelity SaaS clones end to end, including Jira/Confluence and Microsoft 365: relational schema, REST and oRPC API layers, MCP tool servers, and a Svelte 5 frontend.
  • Engineered a cross-database referential-integrity layer with a deterministic SQLite write guard, and orchestrated fleets of autonomous coding agents to run migrations across dozens of repositories.
