What I'm actually doing this month.
Evaluating build-vs-buy across the AI stack, designing the next generation of prose-first agents, and writing about what actually ships in production AI.
▸ building
- ▸ A reference architecture for prose-first agentic systems — turning natural-language specs into deployable agents with retrieval, evaluation, and guardrails baked in.
- ▸ AI-driven QA tooling that closes the loop between failing tests and code suggestions.
▸ evaluating
- ▸ Custom ML vs. managed services (AWS Comprehend, Azure AI) for document understanding at scale.
- ▸ Agent evaluation harnesses — what "passes" really means for non-deterministic systems.
▸ writing
- ▸ A field guide to prose-first agents for operations teams.
- ▸ Lessons from taking AI from prototype to production in a regulated environment.
▸ reading
- ▸ Recent eval / agent papers, plus anything thoughtful on team topology for AI orgs.
▸ open to
- ▸ Director / Head of AI conversations where strategy, hands-on architecture, and team leadership intersect.
▸ get in touch
If any of this overlaps with what you're working on — or you're hiring for the kind of role described above — I'd genuinely like to talk.
