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
