AI strategy and engineering for growing companies

I help growing companies find the AI work that pays for itself and ship it to production.

What I do

Find where AI earns its keep in your product and operations, and what to skip.

Built end to end, with tests, security and clear limits, until it runs in production.

A senior AI lead on your side, part-time, for as long as you need one.

I've been building software for more than 15 years, first at a large company, then on my own:

SAP: —; Engineer in San Francisco, 2016 to 2025.
Arcane Engine: —; My first venture: an AI coding agent that reads, writes and changes code.
JourneyLoop: —; An AI platform for coaches, co-founded and bootstrapped.

I'm Marco Lamina. I've spent my career as an engineer with a product mindset, and the last few years building my own ventures.

My recent side project is Cyclops, a workshop droid.
