About Tom Stovall

I\'m a software engineer with a passion for building at the intersection of AI and real-world utility. In my current role at Centene Corporation, I develop Python and Go services powering insurance sales platforms and state provisioning APIs. This work that demands both technical rigor and careful attention to how software affects people\'s lives.Outside my day job, I\'m actively building in the AI space. My personal GitHub ([intrusive-memory](https://github.com/intrusive-memory)) hosts a homebrew collection of CLI tools that let developers run local LLM inference without routing through external providers. This is a project born from my belief that AI capability shouldn\'t require a cloud dependency. I\'m also building [Produciesta](https://produciesta.app), an app that brings AI-assisted tools to the screenwriting and audio production workflow.Speaking of which, I make things with stories too.[*Confessions of a Software Spell Caster*](https://intrusive-memory.productions/podcasts/confessions/) is a fiction podcast I produce, and it keeps me honest about what it actually means to craft an experience for a listener.Earlier in my career I held senior engineering roles at Pantheon, the Milken Institute, and Universal Music Group, where I led headless Drupal migrations to React/Gatsby stacks, implemented GraphQL and JSON:API layers, and established CI/CD pipelines with CircleCI and Docker.I\'m looking to bring my engineering background and genuine enthusiasm for AI systems to a team doing meaningful work in this space.
