AI-powered software engineering at scale

From the right problem to the measured result.

I'm Hotaviano Melo. I lead a senior architecture team building software with AI at consumer scale (4M MAU). This is where I write down what actually works in agentic, eval-driven engineering, and what doesn't.

What you'll find here:

• The playbook of agentic engineering as I build it, with real numbers: rework, cost, quality.
• Short, honest write-ups. If there's no build behind a post, it stays a note or it dies.
• No prompt tricks, no demos, no opinions without evidence.
