Summary
Ken Miller is a Harvard-educated software engineer and pragmatic generalist with 20+ years of experience and 14 years in senior technical leadership roles, known for getting small teams to punch well above their weight. He blends product-minded systems design with hands-on execution—from building distributed Elixir systems and telemetry pipelines to architecting AI-first developer workflows that moved AI-generated code to 75% of new lines shipped in months. Ken has led cross-functional transformations at startups and scale-ups (Infinite Red, Tandem, Product Hunt, Watershed, Owner.com) and founded and scaled an engineering firm to 30+ people while shipping notable open-source tools. He excels at turning manual, analyst-heavy processes into automated, user-friendly platforms (e.g., compiler-to-SQL model authoring and menu-cleaning agent workflows) and mentors early-stage AI founders on practical LLM product problems. Based in the United States, he combines deep technical craft with operational experience as a principal and limited partner, quietly bridging business strategy and day-to-day engineering.
