Over the last 10 years I have worked for companies in the developer productivity space, in particular in the API Design space.

Currently I am working for Microsoft as an API Architect for Microsoft Graph where I help with the design of APIs very likely you have used, and curate the internal developer experience.

I might be a very good fit for you if

- You are looking for somebody with encyclopedic experience in software development

- You need somebody to dig into a codebase in a bad state and bring it back to excellence

- You need somebody to improve the developer experience of your users, whether they are internal or external

- You need somebody with very strong API Design Skills

- You need somebody that is very well versed in Cloud Environments such as AWS/Azure/GCloud

For the last 10 years I have been working primarily for companies building tools for developers involved with large HTTP APIs (Apiary, Stoplight to name a few). Some of the open source tools you currently use when dealing with OpenAPI might have been written by me.

Currently I work as API Architect where I help design and ship big APIs, work in internal tools and help with the giant API Gateway that serves billions of requests per day and coordinates the various services for ${bit-company}

I can help in architecting very big systems, on the cloud or not, building tools for internal and external developer productivity and I am particularly good when thrown in codebases with a lot of technical debt and bring them back on a path to excellence.

The question for me is whether this is a Microsoft only problem - or an hidden problem for all these “AI” companies

The article is wrong. Rich Hickey is talking about the surface of the function, interface. The implementation details do not matter in this case.
