Capability
AI Product Development
Scope and ship production AI capabilities with the right evals, orchestration, guardrails, and product tradeoffs from the start.
Fabio Tamagno
Executive technical advisor for AI-native launches and engineering transformations.
I work with founders and CEOs on AI-native product bets, platform resets, and engineering systems that still need to ship as the stakes rise.
Based in London, working with teams globally.
AI Capability
Built AI products, AI-enabled teams, and the infrastructure beneath them
Three consecutive AI product contexts across the last decade, spanning hands-on delivery, AI-native engineering operations, and the data and platform foundations that make production systems hold up.
Capability
AI-Native Engineering Operations
Set up teams to use modern AI tooling across delivery without turning quality, ownership, or architecture into a mess.
Capability
AI and Data Infrastructure
Design the model, data, and platform foundations needed for fast experimentation and reliable production behavior.
Selected Outcomes
Proof from product, platform, and team-building work
A few proof points from founder-led launches, enterprise AI delivery, and engineering leadership that had to hold up over time.
monday.com
AI-native launch from concept to revenue in 9 months
Led founding engineering for monday campaigns from concept to public release in 9 months, with close GTM partnership and early ARR traction after launch.
Raft AI
From first engineer to enterprise AI execution
Scaled Raft from first engineer to VP while building automation used in workflows at DHL, Kuehne+Nagel, HSBC, and Standard Chartered.
Operating model
Scaled teams without losing delivery quality
Built engineering organizations of up to ~60 engineers through growth, restructuring, and multi-region execution, with near-zero churn over five years.
How I Help
Where I am most useful
Best when product ambition, technical decisions, and leadership execution all need to move together without creating drag.
Incubate new products
Work with founders and CEOs to turn an AI or SaaS product bet into a tighter scope, a credible architecture, and a launch path the team can actually execute.
Reset core platforms
Step into rewrites or platform resets where delivery cannot stop, and help leadership teams modernize systems without losing operating tempo.
Scale the engineering system
Shape teams, leadership layers, and working rhythms that keep execution strong as product scope, headcount, and technical complexity increase.
Leadership Approach
Systems, people, and execution in sync
I help founders keep decision speed high without letting systems or teams drift. The work is usually some mix of architecture, operating cadence, and hands-on support where the details matter and the cost of noise is high.
- Built engineering organizations of up to ~60 engineers with near-zero churn over five years.
- Worked directly with CTOs, CEOs, and investors on governance, hiring, and operating cadence.
- Stayed hands-on from the first line of code through late-stage AI, platform, and team-shaping work.

Launching the Next Era of fabio.dev
Short notes from the work itself: product bets, platform decisions, and the management patterns that make teams hold up under pressure.
A more personal opening note on the rebuild itself: what AI changed about the process, what still depended on judgment, and the kind of practical writing I want to publish here.
