# Rocky Warren
Engineering leader making AI coding agents reliable in production at Clipboard.

## About

Rocky Warren gets AI coding agents to work reliably in production systems. At Clipboard, he steers AI strategy and software delivery for several staffing marketplaces.

When agents started writing the majority of Clipboard's code, flaky end-to-end tests became a major bottleneck. Rocky focuses on building the verification and observability loops needed to keep test suites honest, ensuring agents don't just "fix" failing tests with endless retries. He speaks about strategies to scale AI tools safely without breaking developer trust.
