Now
What I'm focused on, building, reading, and thinking about right now.
Currently Building
- Your Problem Isn't the Monolith. It's the Data. — A new conference talk on how data ownership, contracts, and events should be the structuring force of architecture — not service boundaries.
- Effective AI-Assisted Development Workshop — A full-day workshop at QCon SF (November 2026) on harness engineering for AI-assisted development.
- premonition.dev — This site — building it as a living portfolio with Astro, React, and Claude Code.
Currently Reading
- The AI-Driven Leader by Geoff Woods (Listening to the audiobook)
Thinking About
- How data ownership disciplines (aggregates, read models, events) apply equally to monoliths and microservices
- What "harness engineering" means for AI-assisted development — the skills, hooks, and subagent patterns that make AI tools effective
- Whether the economics of cheap coding fundamentally change when teams should and shouldn't write code speculatively
Off the Clock
- Playing in the tennis cricket league
- Following the IPL
- Tinkering with Home Assistant for home automation
