Hi! I'm Conrad Decker

A passionate technologist, founder and AI engineer currently exploring what it looks like to build AI-native teams and sharing my discoveries along the way.

I’ve spent the past 20+ years building software - I've written code as an engineer and I've led engineering teams as a CTO and founder. I've brought clarity to chaos while enhancing code quality and delivery velocity. I've scaled systems and fostered alignment between engineering and business teams to produce wildly successful outcomes. These days, I'm driven by one big question:

What does it look like to build a highly leveraged, AI-native company - especially as a solo founder or small team?


Generative AI is reshaping how software is imagined, built, and scaled. I’m experimenting daily with what’s possible: from AI driven workflows, to seeing how far a lean, AI-powered team can go. Is it possible to build a multi-million dollar company with a fraction of the staff? I’m interested in finding out and want to share the results as I go.

Here’s where my work is focused right now:

💪 Empowering small teams and solo founders to leverage AI as a force multiplier

💻 Experimenting with AI-native workflows for modern engineering teams

🧐 Exploring what it looks like to build a lean, AI-leveraged software company from the ground up

📓 Sharing insights and progress while building Coach OS, my own AI-first SaaS company

If you’re curious about how to integrate AI into engineering workflows, what it takes to run a lean AI-driven team, or just want a grounded perspective on the future of building software - I’d love for you to follow along.
