Building software, teams, and ideas
"Programming is the art of simplifying routines."
About
15+ years building software, 5+ leading teams. Still writing code daily.
I specialize in layered architecture, modular monoliths, and TDD. I organize AI agents as a team of specialists with clear roles and constraints, so quality standards don't compete with deadlines.
A great engineer is not just a great coder. The best teams are the ones where psychological safety and growth mindset make everyone sharper.
