About
I'm Robert Balfré, an AI-driven developer based in Sydney, Australia. I've spent 11 years shipping enterprise software, and now I'm focused on what happens when AI agents become part of the development workflow.
I write about the shift happening in software development, build tools and projects in the open with AI, and share practical workflows for developers navigating this transition.
What I Write About
The Shift
Opinionated essays on how AI changes development: what stays, what goes, and what we need to rethink.
Building in the Open
Build logs, demos, and open-source projects where AI agents do the heavy lifting.
The Practitioner's Playbook
Tactical content: workflows, tools, and prompting strategies that actually work.
What I Offer
I help teams and organisations understand and adopt AI-driven development practices. This includes consulting on AI integration into existing workflows, building AI-augmented tools, and advising on how development teams should evolve.
If you're thinking about how AI fits into your engineering org, I'd like to hear from you.
