About

I'm Tyler Klose. I like tinkering and shipping.

I'm VP of Engineering & AI at Skillit, where we're building an AI hiring platform for the construction industry. Small team, Rails monolith, real clients.

Outside of work I'm usually building side projects, doing research, or going down rabbit holes that don't obviously connect. Right now that's quantum foundations, combinatorial test design, sports betting systems, and a personal knowledge management tool. Before all of this I built Know Your Horses — a stats site for Zed Run, digital horse racing on Ethereum — which is probably still the best elevator pitch I've got.

I like Rails, I like working on edge, and I like shipping. When I'm not at a keyboard I'm on the golf course, binging Taylor Sheridan, or reading arXiv papers about things I'm not qualified to have opinions on.

This site is where I put my writing and whatever I'm thinking about.
