Engineering leader, Austin TX

I build engineering organizationsthat ship AI without breaking what works.

13+ years on enterprise platforms. $15M+ in shipped business impact. 200+ engineers enabled through platform programs. Now writing and talking about the engineering systems and team patterns that let companies ship AI fast and stand behind what they shipped.

Public Work

Where I think out loud about the work.

Three places I work through engineering leadership in the AI era. Long-form essays in the playbook, conversations on the podcast, and shorter dispatches in the newsletter.

Long-form

Playbook

Essays on the engineering systems and team patterns that let companies ship AI safely. Current series: spec-driven development for AI agents.

Podcast

Agents & Crumbles

Conversations on agentic engineering, AI strategy, and software leadership. Solo deep-dives and guest episodes for builders and the people who lead them.

Periodic

Newsletter

Short, focused dispatches on shipping AI safely at scale. The thinking before it turns into a playbook chapter or a podcast episode.

Track Record

Operator credentials, platform depth.
