I work on .NET infrastructure and AI tooling. Most of my work is in private repos; this is the public sliver.
I write about engineering judgment at the staff-and-leadership boundary — hiring, RAG in production, and the decisions that don't show up in commit messages. Long-form work lives at hitchcock.dev.
- Production RAG systems — retrieval that doesn't quietly fail
.NETdistributed caching and the migrations nobody enjoys- AI dev tooling that respects multi-project setups
- The occasional Advent of Code
