Practical notes on AI systems, product engineering, architecture, and shipping reliable software.
Advanced Prompt Engineering Techniques: Chain of Thought, Roles, and Structured Outputs
Go beyond basic prompts: chain-of-thought, self-critique, tool-aware prompting, JSON schemas, and multi-step workflows that raise accuracy for complex tasks.
Prompt Engineering Explained: How to Write AI Prompts That Actually Work
A practical introduction to prompt engineering: anatomy of a strong prompt, role–task–context–format, common failures, and a checklist for product teams.
AI-Assisted Coding Best Practices for Professional Teams (Without Shipping Slop)
How engineering teams use coding agents and LLMs safely: review standards, secret hygiene, architecture constraints, and productivity metrics that are not vanity.
From Codebase to Company: Engineering Practices That Make Software Businesses Scale
The operating system of a software business: product discovery, delivery metrics, platform teams, pricing engineering capacity, and customer-driven roadmaps.
Security Architecture for Modern SaaS: Threat Modeling, Tenancy, and Secure Defaults
Practical SaaS security architecture: threat modeling, multi-tenant isolation, secrets, supply chain, and shift-left controls product teams can actually run.
Managing Technical Debt Like a Product Portfolio (Not a Guilt Trip)
Treat tech debt as an investment portfolio: classify interest rates, allocate capacity, and communicate debt to non-engineers without panic.
Architecture Decision Records (ADRs): How High-Performing Teams Stay Aligned
Use ADRs to capture why architecture choices were made—lightweight templates, review habits, and how ADRs prevent rewrite culture.
Observability as Architecture: Logs, Metrics, Traces, and SLOs for Product Teams
Design systems you can debug: structured logging, RED/USE metrics, distributed tracing, SLOs, and on-call practices that reduce MTTR.
Software Testing Strategy That Scales: Unit, Contract, and E2E Without the Waste
A pragmatic test pyramid for modern product teams—what to unit test, when contract tests beat brittle E2E, and how AI changes test design.
API Design Best Practices for 2026: REST, GraphQL, and Event Contracts
Design APIs that product teams can evolve: resource modeling, versioning, GraphQL pitfalls, and async event contracts with clear ownership.
