        "Automated the inbound supply chain — ocean freight into the 3PL, Amazon LTL, and the freight splits between them — retiring the manual coordination that gated most shipments.",
        "Reconstructed how agent-authored commits slipped past review — traced each across five log sources, wrote the post-mortem, and designed the controls that informed Aura's policy for shipping AI-written code."
