About / Yianna Kokalas
One engineer, team output.
I’m a staff software engineer at an enterprise software company, working on large-scale systems and AI. I’ve been shipping software professionally for about a decade, across consulting, marketplaces, media, and enterprise SaaS, mostly in Ruby, JavaScript, and Go.
Nights and weekends I build and operate a production side project, together with a fleet of Claude coding agents. One engineer, team output: approved tickets become merged pull requests and production deploys while I’m at my day job or asleep.
I also write a series called Yianna & Claude Whitepapers with Claude, Anthropic’s AI model. The papers document how we build and operate a production side project. Read them at /whitepapers.
