Not every part of the stack should be automated. My work is deciding which components to hand over to generative AI and which are too critical to leave without human oversight — then setting the security standards to make that boundary hold.
With 12+ years across fintech, proptech, insurtech, energy, education, and enterprise, I’ve designed system architectures, led platform modernizations, and mentored 30+ engineers. That experience is what I now apply to the question every organization is facing: what to automate and what to protect.
I believe in technical rigor over hype. I write about this in Full Context, a biweekly newsletter on AI, architecture, and technology with real depth.
Scalable system design, technology stack strategy, and cloud-native solutions.
I define what to automate with generative AI and what to keep under human control. Security standards to protect the business core.
I write about artificial intelligence, development, and technology. I share what I learn building real products — so others don't have to learn everything from scratch.
Some of the products I've worked on
