KENNY CHIEN · ENTERPRISE AI CONSULTANT & EDUCATOR

The next era

of software is agentic.

I help enterprises ship AI that actually works — from vibe coding to agentic ontology, from first prototype to forward-deployed production.

Kenny Chien works at the frontier where enterprises meet the agentic era. As a consultant he has guided leadership teams from AI curiosity to production systems; as a forward deployed engineer he builds beside the teams he advises.

His thesis is simple: the companies that win the next decade are the ones whose people — not just whose tools — learn to think in agents.

VIBE CODING

Shipping software at the speed of intent — prompting as a craft, not a trick.

AI CODING

Engineering with AI in the loop: workflows, guardrails, and taste.

AGENTIC APPS

Applications where agents plan, act, recover, and report.

FDE

Forward deployed engineering — embedded delivery inside enterprise teams.

AGENTIC ONTOLOGY

Modeling your business so agents can reason about it.

/02

From pilot purgatory to production.

Agentic Architecture & Ontology

Design the ontology your enterprise will run on: entities, actions, permissions — and the agents that traverse them.

ADVISORY · ARCHITECTURE
03

Forward Deployed Engineering

I embed with your engineers as an FDE — pairing, reviewing, and shipping until agentic patterns become muscle memory.

Ideas worth arguing with.

essays in progress
01

Ontology is the new schema

Databases described your data. Ontologies describe your business. Agents need the latter.

02

Prompting is not programming. Orchestration is.

The unit of engineering is shifting from the function to the agent loop.

03

The FDE mindset

Why the best consultants now ship code from inside the building.

04

Slop is a choice

AI does not produce mediocrity. Unexamined taste does.
