AI-Assisted Development Done Right: Architecture First, Speed Second
Generated by Google AI Studio
After many years in software architecture and engineering, I've cracked the code on AI-assisted development that actually delivers enterprise-grade results—5-10x faster than traditional approaches.
The difference? I use 'vibe coding' for velocity, but anchor it in solid architectural foundations.
Most teams jump straight into AI code generation and wonder why they end up with technical debt. My approach combines disciplined architecture with AI augmentation.
📐 Start With Solid Foundations (The Guardrails)
- Express a comprehensive clear product vision upfront
- Define an architecture masterplan and software architecture diagrams using C4 modeling
- Transform architecture into detailed specs for spec-driven development
- Embed Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) and Non-Functional Requirements (NFRs) directly into specifications
- Establish strict test-driven development (TDD) practices before a single line ships
⚡ Accelerate With Intelligence
- Context Engineering: Systematically managing the AI's context window to ensure full retention of vision, tasks, and constraints
- Cursor & Agent Rules: Defining strict .cursorrules and agent behaviors to automatically enforce coding standards and architectural patterns
- Sophisticated prompting for code reviews, security audits, and refactoring
- Meta-Prompting: Keeping AI aligned with your vision, architecture and specs rather than generic solutions
- Epic and story refinement powered by AI that understands your context
- Automated documentation and architecture diagram maintenance
🔒 Enterprise-Grade Quality
- GitHub CI/CD pipelines with comprehensive testing gates
- Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform) for reproducible deployments
- Test coverage, code quality, and security baked into every commit
- Architecture alignment checks at every stage
What I Offer:
- Training & Enablement → Teach your teams how to implement AI-assisted development with architectural rigor (not just prompt engineering).
- Hands-On Delivery → Join your team as an AI-assisted full-stack engineer delivering production-ready software at 5-10x velocity.
This isn't about replacing developers—it's about amplifying experienced engineers who understand that speed without architecture is just expensive chaos.
