Building the next generation of developer infrastructure starting with Layerun.
What I'm Building Now
Engineer-turned-founder creating a causal–temporal compute engine to replace CI/CD pipelines with deterministic, incremental execution.
Layerun
Layerun is a causal–temporal incremental compute engine that generalizes CI/CD into a continuous, deterministic compute fabric. Unlike traditional DAG-based systems, Layerun discovers dependencies dynamically and maintains temporal state across epochs.
- Causal Discovery: Automatic dependency discovery via capability observation.
- Incremental Memoization: High cache hit rates with multi-factor memo keying.
- Constraint Planner: Goal-based execution with multi-objective optimization.
- Temporal State: Immutable epoch snapshots with time-travel debugging.
- CAS-backed Code Store: Content-addressable storage for deterministic execution.
