— Available for new engagements Q2 2026
From Git issue to reviewed, tested pull request, without a single line written by hand. I set up the agentic development infrastructure that turns your specifications into production-ready software. No new hires. No trial and error.

— 01 The Problem
Most teams have adopted Copilot, Cursor, or similar tools. The expected productivity gains never arrive. Your team's potential stays locked, not because the tools are bad, but because the workflows around them are missing.
The hidden cost is worse: developers believe the tools make them 24% faster, even when measured performance drops. You could be losing weeks of capacity every quarter without anyone noticing.
Your experienced developers may actually be slower with AI tools when used without structured workflows. You are paying more and getting less.
METR, 2025 (Randomized Controlled Trial)
Larger pull requests with more defects. The review burden grows and eats the speed gains you thought you had.
Faros AI, 10,000+ developers
With proven, structured workflows, teams complete tasks in half the time. Better code quality, fewer defects. This is what the right setup delivers.

Not ready for a full engagement?
I walk your team through the concepts, assess your current setup, and leave you with a concrete action plan you can use immediately. Zero risk, guaranteed takeaways.
No development team?
IT landscape review, vendor evaluation, and a practical roadmap you can act on. Same proven approach, different starting point.
— 04 The Full Picture
Most teams are stuck at stage one, while others quietly pull ahead. Real productivity comes from building the system around the tools. I help you move through all four stages.
The foundation. Coding standards, automated feedback loops, and safety rules that wrap each agent. This is what turns an autocomplete tool into a reliable development partner. Without it, you get fast slop. With it, you get consistent, proven quality.
Agents handle entire features and modules, not just individual functions. You write specifications, the agent delivers implementations. The shift from writing code to reviewing outcomes.
The Dark Factory. Specifications go in, tested and reviewed software comes out. Holdout scenarios and automated quality gates replace manual code review. This is where the real productivity gains compound.
The meta-layer that coordinates multiple agents working in parallel across branches, repositories, and teams. Task decomposition, dependency management, conflict resolution. This is where it scales.
This is not theory. I work at stages 1 through 3 every day, building production software. The question is: where does your team stand?
— 05 About
I started as an application developer in automotive manufacturing, moved into project management and leadership at UBS Investment Bank, and led automation initiatives at Accenture. After that, I co-founded and built two SaaS platforms from scratch.
Today I use structured agentic development workflows to build and scale a SaaS platform. The same proven tools and processes I set up for clients are what I work with every day. You get methods tested in production, not recycled from a textbook.
My career has covered both sides: business leadership and hands-on software development, from directing teams and managing large portfolios to writing code and shipping products. That range is what I bring to every engagement.

Agentic Development Consultant
— 06 Process
No lengthy programs, no strategy documents that gather dust. Practical work that produces results you can measure.
01
We map your current stack, development workflow, team structure, and pain points. I look at your actual codebase, CI/CD pipeline, and review process. You get clarity in days, not weeks.
02
I set up the agentic coding infrastructure directly in your repositories. Proven coding standards, automated review, quality gates, and custom workflows for your domain. Your team learns by working with it.
03
Your team works independently with the new workflows. Faster pull requests, automated reviews, fewer defects. Results that compound every sprint. I offer ongoing advisory, but you will not depend on me.
