Noel Desmarais
Applied AI Engineer
About
I’m Noel, a software engineer interested in how the latest AI tooling can be applied to real problems. I like taking new capabilities and stress testing them against actual workflows to see what holds up.
I work at Maven AGI, a Boston based AI startup building enterprise AI agents for customer support. We build enterprise-grade AI agents that unify systems, knowledge, and actions so organizations can automate and improve customer support and experience at scale. My role centers on building the tooling that helps customers design, configure, and ship better agents, faster.
Outside of work, I experiment with new agent architectures, proactive behaviors, evolving capabilities, and new Claude Code skills. I explore how agents can integrate with legacy systems and extend themselves within defined boundaries.
I’m also building Quotient, a receipt scanning bill splitting app. It gives me a full stack environment to apply the same ideas end to end, from messy inputs to reliable outputs.
Most of my work sits at the intersection of AI capability and practical execution.
