Zachary Oakes Operating System

// Operating Philosophy

AI DOES THE
BORING WORK.

Have a challenge? I'll make it shippable.

20+ Years •• Patented AI Tech •• 60+ Shipped Last Year

How I keep AI-assisted development fast, concrete, and reviewable.

  1. 01

    Linear is the outcome system

    Scope, decisions, PRDs, agent runs, and code review stay in one place. If it is not in Linear, it is not real.

  2. 02

    Simplify relentlessly

    Simple outcomes are measurable, stackable, and momentum-building. Consistency gets easy when the target stays small.

  3. 03

    AI does the boring work

    Agents scaffold, test, migrate, and summarize. I architect the system, interrupt bad assumptions, and drive the outcome.

  4. 04

    Velocity is a side effect

    Twenty years+ in software. Patented AI tech. 60+ production projects last year. Speed counts only when the work holds up.
