Odin
A shared AI playbook for software teams — so everyone's assistant follows the same proven process, and delivery quality doesn't depend on who's prompting.
Daniel Zambrano
I build infrastructure that stays up when it's needed most.
Software engineer, AI-tooling builder, and technical partner for founders. When a small team needs someone to take action, set direction, or give honest technical guidance — I can be that person.
// what I do
Software development, design & architecture
End-to-end product engineering — I shape the architecture, make the hard structural calls, and write the code that ships and stays maintainable.
AI agents & tooling
Agent teams and developer tooling that actually ship — grounded, testable, and honest about what they don't know.
Technical guidance & advising
Honest, plain-spoken direction for founders making hard technical calls — I share what I've learned the hard way, not invoices.
Reliability engineering
Systems built so the data is still there, and the service is still up, on the day it matters most.
