On episode 92 of o11ycast, Ray Myers joins Ken and Jess to explore how observability, reliability engineering, and formal software engineering practices are becoming even more important as AI coding agents take on larger roles in development. Rather than viewing AI as a replacement for established engineering disciplines, Ray argues that techniques like continuous delivery, testing, specifications, and formal verification provide the confidence needed to safely harness AI-generated code.
Ray Myers is a software engineer, architect, and educator with more than 20 years of experience building large-scale software systems. Formerly Chief Architect of OpenHands, he now leads The Coding Agency, an initiative focused on improving software development through AI literacy, engineering best practices, and better developer tools.
