Technology changes organisations before it changes job titles.
The real AI transition is organisational: how decisions get made, how knowledge flows, how teams are shaped.

Ask Jenks is an AI assistant grounded in Jenks's public résumé. It can make mistakes.
Jenks didn't arrive with ChatGPT. Enterprise systems → APIs → platforms → ecosystems → decentralised infrastructure → applied AI.

What Jenks leads
AI as an organisational capability, not a chat tab.
1
AI engineering
Agent architectures, LLM systems, tool use, retrieval and knowledge bases, evaluation, human-in-the-loop and agent-to-agent workflows.
2
AI transformation & governance
Company-wide adoption across engineering and non-engineering teams — with security, auditability and spend designed into the architecture.
3
AI economics
Intelligence is becoming infrastructure. Jenks measures it like infrastructure: model choice, cost, reliability and return per team.
4
Developer platforms
APIs, SDKs, OpenAPI, developer portals, app-store integrations and DevRel programs that let others build what you didn't anticipate.

Career
Each role is a story about leverage.
Official titles follow LinkedIn. Each story follows the same structure — context, mandate, what was built, and impact — with room for photos and artefacts as they are added.
Leadership
“I lead by helping my team glow.”
A leader's job isn't to be the smartest person in every conversation. It's to create the environment, systems and clarity that let capable people do their strongest work — and in 2026 that includes the AI they work alongside.
Thinking
How Jenks sees the world.
The ideas behind the work — on AI, organisations, economics, security and trust.
AI should make teams more capable — not just make individuals type faster.
The unit of value is the AI-augmented team: humans and agents with clear roles, shared context and human-in-the-loop checkpoints.
Intelligence is infrastructure. Measure it like infrastructure.
When does $20k of AI spend per developer pay back? Model routing, budgets and evaluation are leadership questions, not procurement afterthoughts.
Community
Technology is also a way to show up for your community.
Things Jenks starts without anyone asking.
