Architecting Autonomy
Authority, boundaries, and control in autonomous systems
Autonomous systems don’t fail because they lack intelligence.
They fail because authority, boundaries, and control were never designed for autonomy in the first place.
I work on the architecture of autonomous and agentic systems, how decision-making is distributed, how execution is bounded, and how stability is preserved as systems scale beyond human cadence.
My writing explores what breaks when autonomy meets real-world systems, and what it takes to design structures where autonomy can exist without collapsing into chaos or control theater.
My background spans integration, distributed systems, embedded systems, control systems, and complex adaptive systems.
I’m interested in conversations where autonomy is real and structure matters more than intent.
Architecture is the control surface.
