Full-spectrum engineering

AI

Where a model earns its place — agents, retrieval, and evaluation, not a chatbot bolted on.

Featured work

Two phones float in a dark violet studio, showing the real JobMap app: the dashboard — brand logo, interview and in-contact counts, a 'Needs You Today' card, and upcoming interviews with Databricks and Figma — beside an angled phone listing tracked applications by company and stage.

JobMap

A private, cross-platform app that turns a job search into a pipeline — companies, contacts, interviews, and offers in one place, with an AI resume builder that tailors to each posting on your own API key.

The Clear Print Press line as a product hero — the four large-print titles (Sudoku, Word Search, Codewords, and Crosswords for Seniors) standing on a warm wooden table in a cozy, softly-lit reading room.

Pipeline Meridian's brand mark as an editorial key visual: a fine petrol-teal wireframe meridian globe on a deep petrol field, crossed by a single stepped copper route that rises left to right through two open waypoint nodes and terminates in one glowing copper endpoint — signal to a single booked meeting, not a lead list.

How we work

  1. 01Understand the system
  2. 02Isolate the constraint
  3. 03Build the smallest thing that helps
  4. 04Prove it moved the number
  5. 05Then find the next one

We build the smallest system that solves the problem — and reach for AI only when it's the right tool, not the fashionable one.

Brandon Johnson, founder of Fullspec Studio
Who does the work

Principal engineering without the agency relay race.

Fullspec Studio is led by Brandon Johnson — a principal engineer with roughly 19 years building distributed systems in regulated environments, payments infrastructure, and developer platforms at companies like Moov Financial and Cricut.

At different points across those years he's been the specialist on each band of the spectrum — infrastructure, data, backend, frontend, in turn — going deep on one part of the stack at a time. The full-spectrum range is real depth earned in each layer, not breadth spread thin.

He does the work himself; when a project needs a dedicated specialist, he brings in a trusted collaborator rather than a bench of juniors. The studio stays small on purpose — so the person who scopes your project is the one who ships it.

BUILD NOTES

Building the /discuss assistant — the model was the easy part

The AI assistant on our own site: a deterministic scoping script, hard spend caps, layered rate limits, deletable transcripts, and a red-team suite that gates every release.
