Not Every Workflow Needs AI
The useful question is not where AI can help. It is where AI creates enough leverage to earn a durable place in the workflow.
Mihir Amin | Product-minded engineer
I turn complicated questions into useful systems.
I build products, systems, and experiments around the places where technology changes how people work. I use the skills I have developed along the way to give back, strengthen my community, and help the people around me grow.

Questions in progress
The questions are usually more interesting than the labels.
These are the ones currently shaping what I build, test, and pay attention to. None of them feel finished.
Where should the machine stop?
Finding the boundary where automation creates leverage without hiding responsibility.
What deserves to be made?
Protecting curiosity while the distance between an idea and a working thing keeps shrinking.
How do you make the first step feel possible?
Designing environments where trying, getting stuck, and trying again all feel welcome.

Product work
AI-enabled software delivery
A year-long shift from autocomplete to an engineering workflow where AI planned, reviewed, investigated, and prepared work across the delivery cycle.
Community project
HERO Code Camp
An annual coding camp designed to help girls in grades 3–12 experience programming as something they can shape, share, and enjoy.
Product work
Human-centered AI operations
An internal system that gave operations teams AI-assisted prioritization and review while keeping consequential judgment with experienced people.

The Cost of Wonder
AI has made software feel playful and alive again. That same energy can quietly turn into burnout when engineers never stop using the muscles that make the moment exciting.
Mondays at Empora
The old picture of engineering culture was a quiet room with headphones on and nobody talking. Ours looked nothing like that.
Keep exploring
There is more to the story than a homepage can hold.
The longer version includes the career turns, the community work, and the principles that have stayed with me while the technology kept changing.
