Hari Krishnan - About Me

Context-Engineering, Spec-Driven Development, AI-Coding, Software Engineering - Field Notes and more

I am Founder and CEO of Polarizer Technologies, where I help enterprises adopt AI-augmented development practices. I have over two decades of experience spanning platform engineering, product startups, enterprise transformation, and technical advisory across finance, telecom, logistics, and retail.

My current focus is Spec-Driven Development (SDD) at enterprise scale and how specifications become the shared interface between human stakeholders and AI coding agents. Read more about this on Intent-Driven Dev.

I am an AsyncAPI Ambassador, maintainer of OpenSpec, and contribute to OpenSource projects.
