[03]About

A short story.

I'm a software engineer based in West Haven, Connecticut.

I'm co-founder and CTO at Yanib — an AI-powered release-notes platform for dev teams and individual engineers. It's the bridge between shipping something and the world actually hearing about it. Connect a GitHub or GitLab repo and Yanib watches every PR and commit in the background, drafting a clean, structured changelog on every tag — or fully on autopilot, with zero clicks.

Yanib publishes everywhere at once: GitHub Releases, a public changelog page, Slack, Discord, email subscribers, and an embeddable widget. Every user also gets a public /u/username profile — an AI-written tagline, a 365-day shipping heatmap, pinned featured releases, and a grouped timeline of everything they've ever shipped.

I also work as a Software Engineer at Fluid Commerce. On the side I publish small things — research like TriGuard, hackathon builds, and open-source CLI tools.
