About

I'm Erick Bórquez, Head of Engineering at an AI startup where I lead the development of tools that help developers build with large language models.

My work focuses on the intersection of developer experience and AI capabilities— designing systems that make LLMs more reliable, debuggable, and practical for production use cases.

Background

Before my current role, I spent years building developer tools and infrastructure at various stages of scale. I've learned that the best systems are the ones that fade into the background, letting developers focus on what they're actually trying to build.

I write about the challenges and patterns I encounter while building for the LLM era—topics like error handling, debugging workflows, prompt engineering at scale, and the architecture decisions that matter when AI is a core part of your stack.

Get in Touch

The best way to reach me is on Twitter. I'm also on LinkedIn and GitHub.

If you're working on interesting problems in the AI tooling space, I'd love to hear about it.
