No bench, no juniors
You work with the engineer who owns the outcome. One inbox. One PR author.
Twelve years of product engineering plus AI-first delivery. Embed for sprints or months — code, reviews, and production releases. You merge the PR; the outcome is already owned.
// diff --stat why/
Embedded AI engineering — architecture, implementation, and release leadership. No agency layers between you and the person who writes the code.

You work with the engineer who owns the outcome. One inbox. One PR author.
02 · workflow
Same speed boost used on live Clutch products — generate faster, reject harder. Strong models when they fit.
03 · stack
Mobile, web, backends, and model integration. If it ships to users, it is in scope.
04 · timezone
CET-friendly with US East Coast overlap. Async by default; standups when they earn their slot.
// open pull requests
Join your standup, board, and release train. Tickets in, merged code out.
Unstick an AI feature or mobile release. Kill the thrash; land the wedge.
Threats, cost, and scale before you overbuild. Written findings, not vibes.
Level up your team while shipping the thing. Knowledge transfer is the product.
// git commit -m "schedule call"
Reply within business days. Bring a repo link or a stuck ticket. No discovery theatre.
// log --oneline notes/
An embedded senior engineer should own merge decisions, delivery risks and knowledge transfer alongside implementation.
Use AI to draft code faster while engineers keep responsibility for behavior, dependencies and maintainability.
Use fractional senior help for a defined engineering gap; hire full time when ownership is continuous.
