About Aviv Zaken
I’m an engineering leader, founder, and CTO. I’ve learned most of what I know by making decisions with incomplete information, living with the results, and adjusting.
CTO Field Notes is where I turn that experience into practical lessons—what worked for me, what didn’t, and what I’d do differently next time.
What CTO Field Notes Covers#
The topics overlap by design. AI-assisted development changes review and measurement. Technical debt changes delivery risk. Team design changes how much judgment an organization can apply. The aim is to examine those connections rather than treat each decision in isolation.
