Backend-minded AI engineering
Daniel Pina
Practical AI engineering with a backend mindset.
I write about agents, MCP, backend systems, automation, and the unglamorous parts of making AI tools actually work.

Focus
Systems around AI, not AI spectacle.
APIs, agents, MCP, automation, reliability, tooling, and the backend decisions that make AI workflows useful outside a demo.
