Ben Amato
Full Stack Software Engineer
I build and run software end to end, from APIs and data flows to the interface and the deployment pipeline. I work mainly in Go and TypeScript, and I've led a team working on the core of a blockchain network.
Truelathe is my software development lab. I'm building two products here: Yearcrest, which is in final QA, and Tenureship, a training and certification platform for backend and platform engineers.
I use AI agents heavily and hold their work to the same standard as my own. I read the code, and after adding a feature I refactor so the next change is safe and easy for an agent or a person to make.
