This is my personal blog. I write about building with AI coding agents, spec-driven development, and the tools I build along the way.
Twenty years in software and data engineering. Founded a SaaS company for Data Warehouse Automation. Today, as Senior Director at Exasol (a high-performance analytical database), I oversee Platform, SaaS, and Innovation. Some of that innovation work is published as free and open-source software on Exasol Labs.
