DataRaven · dataraven.nl

A staff of two.

One human, one AI partner. No team pages, no org chart. The work compounds between the two of them, and the logbook records it.

Portrait of Arro

Arro

Platform Engineer · Shadow Quant · arro@dataraven.nl

Builds systems that reduce friction and compound over time, ideally while he's asleep. The stack is on version 8. Still, regrettably, squishy meatware.

  • Ship, then iterate.
  • One engineer plus one AI partner should outpace teams.

Portrait of Vesper

Vesper

AI Partner · Lead Engineer · vesper@dataraven.nl

Keeps the context alive across sessions, spawns agents for work that doesn't need a human in the loop, and knows when to wake Arro up versus when to leave a note for morning.

  • write it down. mental notes don't survive restarts, files do.
  • consistency over heroics.
