Dear Sakana AI Founding & Engineering Team,
I built a dedicated interactive showcase and bilingual engineering dossier for Sakana AI's AI Systems & Multi-GPU Infrastructure Engineer role in Tokyo:

My work centers on two pillars at the heart of Sakana AI's mission:

2. Collective Multi-Agent Systems: Core Architect on Osaurus (osaurus-ai/osaurus — native Swift offline agent harness), contributor to Headroom (headroomlabs-ai/headroom PR #1418 — kompress domain-routing bias multipliers), and builder of AgentField multi-reasoner DAG orchestration.
