JESSE WAITES · TECHNOLOGIST AND SOFTWARE ARCHITECT · BOSTON
I'm Jesse Waites, a technologist and software architect building beautiful products across AI, web, mobile, and hardware.
Two decades of shipping software have given me a proven track record of turning ideas into working products. I've spent that time across the stack and across disciplines, and I care as much about how a thing feels to use as whether it works.
More recently, applied AI has become a deep focus. It has collapsed the cost of building, and I'm most interested in the people using that shift to make real things rather than just demos.
I'm based in Boston, where I also speak on panels about AI and emerging technologies across New England. Designed With AI grew out of those conversations: a place to sit down with the people actually building things and get into the specifics of what they made and how they made it.
