Hey, I'm Avi Shefi

I’m a software engineer with 12 years consulting on large-scale infrastructure, cloud architecture, and lately AI tooling and autonomous agent systems.

I build and debug things that must run reliably at scale: high-throughput backends, resilient distributed setups, and designs that deliver real value without exploding costs or complexity.

Here I write about the practical side: tough trade-offs, debugging war stories, decision shortcuts that cut through paralysis. No polished theory, just real trenches and fixes.
