ELITE-PULSE / BIOMETRIC AI
ELITE-PULSE
A biometric decision-intelligence platform for pressure moments, connecting a mobile app, GraphQL facade, AI Mentor, biometric signals, and internal ops.
Biometric privacy by architecture
Where the project started
ELITE-PULSE separates a user's facts from AI interpretation: the Mentor works on encrypted, versioned profile projections, never on raw tables, and never overwrites historical facts.
ELITE-PULSE separates facts from interpretation. Mobile collects context, the modular backend owns decisions and behavior, GraphQL is the public client contract, and the AI Mentor works on versioned profile and memory projections.
Business / Product
Problems and solutions
Each tile connects a real product tension with the decision that clarified the domain, UX, or operations.
Wellbeing apps, productivity tools, health data, and AI coaching operate separately, so they miss the decision in its real context.
Design a private loop: state, signal, decision, action, outcome, reflection, training, and AI interpretation.
The scope could easily become a feature list without one product, data, and ownership model.
ELITE-PULSE separates facts from interpretation. Mobile collects context, the modular backend owns decisions and behavior, GraphQL is the public client contract, and the AI Mentor works on versioned profile and memory projections.
The project needed decisions that would stay readable after the first version: for users, the team, and further delivery.
GraphQL facade as the only client contract. HealthKit/Health Connect as primary biometric paths.
Roles and competencies
The competencies this build required
Competencies are shown as ownership roles: CTO, Tech Lead, engineering, DevOps, cloud, security, and AI where they were part of the work.
Fractional CTO
Connecting the product thesis, domain risk, and priorities so technology supports business decisions instead of becoming a separate workstream.
Open competency- Product category and positioning
- Scope priorities and risk
- Decisions ready for founder or CTO review
- Product thesis translated into technical priorities.
- Risks framed in a language stakeholders can review.
Tech Lead
Shaping responsibility boundaries, domain modeling, and architecture decisions so the project can grow without drifting into an accidental monolith.
Open competency- Bounded contexts and ownership
- Readable technical decisions
- Roadmap without implementation chaos
- Domain boundaries and decisions that remain reviewable after MVP.
- Ownership model readable for later delivery stages.
Software Engineer
Turning the domain into screens, APIs, flows, and maintainable implementation with focus on clarity and post-MVP evolution.
Open competency- Backend and application contracts
- UX surfaces ready for iteration
- Code and maintenance model
- Implementation tied to the real product workflow.
- Contracts and code prepared for post-launch iteration.
DevOps Engineer
Designing delivery, observability, and operations so release, diagnostics, and recovery are part of the product.
Open competency- CI/CD and release readiness
- Observability and production signals
- Operations without manual rituals
- Release, diagnostics, and recovery designed as product capabilities.
- Production signals ready for maintenance without guessing.
Cloud Engineer
Choosing cloud, data, and integration foundations so scale, cost, and reliability are not added after the fact.
Open competency- Google Cloud and managed services
- Data, events, and storage
- Cost and operational control
- Cloud choices tied to cost, scale, and data responsibility.
- Integrations and storage treated as foundations, not add-ons.
Security Engineer
Biometric data and reflections are encrypted as sensitive JSONB fields, authentication runs on OIDC, and the AI Mentor operates only on hashed, versioned projections - never on raw domain tables.
Open competency- Encrypted JSONB fields for biometrics, PII, and reflections
- OAuth2/OIDC auth with facts kept separate from AI interpretation
- OpenTelemetry tracing without PII in logs; the web app is internal backoffice only
- Privacy, roles, and auditability built into the product model.
- Security visible in domain decisions, not only around the UI.
AI/ML Engineer
Treating AI as a product capability: with context, constraints, versioned signals, and a clear boundary between facts and interpretation.
Open competency- LLM as a controlled capability
- Signal and projection quality
- Responsible product constraints
- AI constrained by context, signals, and product responsibility.
- Boundary between facts and interpretation preserved in architecture.
