Building the Future
I'm Derek Kaneshiro—a software engineer with 25+ years of experience who's gone all-in on AI-powered development. Not as a buzzword, but as a fundamental shift in how great software gets built.
My background spans healthcare systems serving half a million patients, veterinary platforms powering 750+ hospitals, and digital signage networks across the nation. I've managed teams of 30 engineers and architected systems that are still running a decade later.
Now I'm proving what's possible when deep experience meets AI-first development. In the last 6 months, I've shipped three production-grade platforms—each with mobile apps, web portals, APIs, payments, and analytics. That's not hype. That's the new reality.
I help companies who want that same velocity without sacrificing quality.
