AI systems that show their work.

I'm Adam Ospalak: electrical engineering and Ivey business student, and AI systems developer for an engineering firm. I build AI systems for founders and I'm open to internship, contract and founding-engineer work.

Custom PCBSecure porch delivery boxA custom Arduino PCB that guards deliveries with RFID, IR, light and tilt sensing.

A lockable box against package theft, built by a team of three for ECE 2242. On power-up it reads the light level for 3 seconds to set its own baseline, and the IR sensor trips at 0.75 V held for 3 seconds. A servo works the lock; a buzzer and LCD give feedback. Every implemented block test passed.

16 skillsSkill libraryReusable Claude Code skills that run my agent system and my class prep.

12 skills run my agent operating system and 4 run class prep. The revision skill quotes each correction, checks it against the source and folds the lesson into the framework, so the same mistake does not come back. Its incident log is append-only. A prompt library finds, tunes, files and revamps prompts over one shared library.

1st in category · 3rd overallPrusa XL enclosureA modular, open-source printer enclosure with a plug-in filtration add-on.

An enclosure for the Prusa XL 3D printer, built by a team of five for Western Engineering's Winter 2025 Design Showcase. It placed 1st in the 3D printing category and 3rd overall. The full bill of materials came to $162.40 CAD, 35% under the client's $250 budget, with the filtration add-on at $49.58 against its $50 allowance. Every printed part comes from one 1 kg spool (941 g). An Arduino monitor flags a spent filter with a red LED.

What I build
01

Agents that check their own work

Every task gets a written contract; every result is re-checked before it counts.

02

Sales and lead automation

Lead finding, drafted outreach and a person approving every send.

03

Engineering workflow tools

AI tools for an engineering firm's assessment work.

04

Prompt and context engineering

16 reusable Claude Code skills, a prompt library, session handoffs.

Off the clock

I try to get a little better every day, whether that's at work, in the gym or learning a new skill. But I still make time to enjoy the little things.

01 · DJing

I picked up DJing this year and play at house parties, restaurants and bars. Most of what I play is house, but every crowd is a bit different, so I'm always discovering new music, trying new sounds and figuring out what works.

02 · Staying active

I played competitive hockey for 7+ years and still make time for intramurals at school. I've also trained in martial arts for a few years, learning Muay Thai, and most other days I'm in the gym, out for a run or on my bike.

03 · Racing

I worked on the electrical powertrain and aerodynamics for Western Formula Racing. I used to race go-karts competitively, and I still go whenever I can for fun.

04 · Travel

Bogotá is one of my favourite places, mostly for the food, the people and the lifestyle, with Greece and Spain close behind. I love experiencing cultures different from my own, and travelling is where I learn the most outside of school and work.
