About
I'm Paul Stack — a product leader, infrastructure engineer, and AI maximalist based in Derry, Ireland.
My path to product has been unconventional. I've spent over two decades deep in infrastructure engineering: building Terraform and Pulumi providers, shipping cloud platforms, and leading engineering teams. That background shapes everything about how I think about product. The best products come from understanding the pain firsthand.
These days I'm obsessed with building the machine that builds the machine. Not just using AI agents — but designing the platforms, primitives, and feedback loops that let agents build, ship, and operate production systems autonomously. The real
frontier isn't a smarter model. It's the infrastructure around it.
The View from the AI Frontier is where I share what I'm learning, building, and breaking along the way. Product thinking, infrastructure, AI-native tooling, and the occasional strong opinion.
