At Qodo, we believe that empowering professional, busy development teams with code integrity solutions addresses a critical set of problems and pain points. After all, who wants software plagued by outages, critical bugs, or poor maintainability?

Moreover, the solution capable of achieving advanced levels of code review and automated testing for complex code will ultimately enable the birth of the “AI Developer” that actually works for complex code and environments. This is precisely what we’re building at Qodo.

I bring over 20 years of experience in machine learning, including participating in and leading world-class teams in training and fine-tuning foundational models, as well as winning multiple ML and programming competitions.
