Travis Jankowski

Full-time AI Engineer since May 2026, following co-op work during my final year at MSOE. Build and own AI agents that accelerate the tax preparation and tax review processes for CPAs — analyzing and comparing prior-year returns against the current year to verify optimal tax strategy is utilized, including application of carryover losses and other factors. Agent capabilities stay constant while the harness around them is deliberately kept evolving: I've worked across graph-orchestration and SDK-based agent frameworks and now lead our next-generation harness migration.

• Developed AI agents for automated tax preparation workflows, iterating across successive agent frameworks
• Lead for the agent-harness migration: evaluating emerging frameworks and owning the transition of production workloads
• Built tax return analysis systems to optimize tax strategy implementation
• Integrated carryover loss analysis and compliance verification features

Web UI Scrum Team: Drove full-stack feature development by building scalable Angular.js interfaces and integrating them with robust Python backend APIs. Built features that provide powerful customization for customer devices enabling complex code reading and automation workflows.

Testing & CI Scrum Team: Engineered functional and integration tests for product software using Python, C#, and C++ and used testing to verify supported features before product releases. Reduced build wait times by up to 40% through refactoring tests and extending build infrastructure.
