Agent systems
Building Jido around the parts that matter after a demo: coordination, supervision, durable execution, and recovery.
I build reliable systems for people and AI agents.
I am the creator of Jido and an engineering leader with three decades of experience across open source, startups, and large-scale platforms. This is where I share what I am building, learning, and thinking about.
