Aric Camarata

Aric served in the U.S. Army from 2001 to 2005, where he developed the discipline and composure under pressure that still defines how he works. He had been writing software since middle school.

He launched his development career at Roxbury Group in 2003 and spent the next decade shipping enterprise systems for Apple, AT&T, Capgemini, Pearson, and Northrop Grumman before founding Unity in 2014. The Unity decade covered enterprise contracting for Credit Karma, Walmart, Cigna, Cambium, Progress, and CMD plus open-source platform work, most prominently nSelf, a self-hosted backend CLI that replaces managed databases with a single command on a $4-per-month server.

In 2024 he shifted focus to AI infrastructure as Principal AI Engineer at Unity. The current build is nClaw, a multi-model agent platform with hybrid retrieval (PostgreSQL plus pgvector plus tsvector plus Reciprocal Rank Fusion plus cross-encoder reranking via BGE-M3), a Multi-AI Router that ladders across Claude, GPT-5.4, and local Qwen3 models on Apple Silicon, and persistent agent memory in Postgres that recalls year-old conversations.
