The person behind the progress
Hi, I’m Joe.
Still in progress.
I’m a full-stack engineer working on a web app, building toward the intersection of distributed systems and AI agents.
Learning in the open
This is a place to keep track of the work: coding problems and solutions, recorded system design walkthroughs, and notes from building with AI agents.
I’m preparing for agent infrastructure and agent systems engineering roles. The questions that interest me sit between software that works once and systems that keep working when things go wrong.
Three tracks, one direction
- Grind 75. Practicing problem solving and recording the ideas worth remembering.
- System design. Working through prompts, recording solutions, and making tradeoffs explicit.
- Agent infra. Building, experimenting, and writing about the things I learn.
A path worth sharing
For now, this is a journal. Over time, I want it to become a useful guide for other engineers making a similar move—with the detours and lessons left in.
