Software Engineer, AI Agents

George Weale

Summary

I am a software engineer building AI agent infrastructure and developer tools. My work is focused on reliable agent systems, programming languages for automation, and modernization of legacy software.

I am currently working on the agent development experience at Google and building strust.us, a system for measuring and improving AI modernization of COBOL and other legacy codebases. I previously completed my master's in computer science at Columbia University after studying chemical engineering at UC Santa Barbara.

Outside of work I play cello, backpack, write, and release music as Copperbelt.

Additional information: software, social, projects, writing, music, photos.
