Long bio
Jerry Mannel Reghunadh has spent twenty years in tech moving between QA, product innovation, and solution architecture, and is now a senior director. He co-wrote *The Developer's Guide to AI* with Jacob Orshalick and Danny Thompson (No Starch Press, June 2026). His writing focuses on the judgment calls engineering teams face adopting AI — the tradeoffs that don't have a clean answer, and what AI actually changes about the job versus what it only looks like it changes.
