Safoine El Khabich — MLOps Engineer & AI Systems Builder

I'm Safoine. I like making software, breaking software, and writing about the difference between the two.

I started writing code because I wanted to know how stuff works. That hasn't changed — I just got better at pretending I know what I'm doing.

I work on MLOps, cloud infrastructure, AI agents, and open-source developer tools. I'm a core maintainer on ZenML — building something people actually use every day is still the most fun I've had in this career.

I don't have a neat career narrative. I follow whatever problem interests me most, and right now that's making AI systems actually hold up outside a demo. Before that it was pipelines. Before that it was Kubernetes. There's always a next thing.

This site is where I put things I've figured out, things I got wrong, and things I'm still thinking about. If any of it's useful to you, that makes my day.
