No two days look the same, and Tristam Fenton-May, SVP of Engineering at Deriv, wouldn't have it any other way. In episode five of ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ @ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐, Tristam shares what it really means to build when the problems keep getting more interesting.

In episode four of ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ @ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐, he shares what that change really looked like. Smaller teams, clearer ownership, and a faster way of building.

Heโs been hands-on through the transition to exponentially faster building. In Episode 2 of ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ @ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐, he breaks down what execution speed really means, why AI has to win for clients, and why the most exciting chapter is still ahead.
Speed is only sustainable when the foundation is solid. In Episode 1 of ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ @ ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐, Raunak, VP of Engineering, shares how we restructured first, agile teams, real ownership, then brought in AI.
Every AI team talks about "limitless potential." We'd rather show you the plumbing. ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐<๐ฒ๐ฑ> is where our AI engineering team writes about what we're actually building: the architectural tradeoffs, the production code, and the problems that don't have clean answers yet. No thought leadership. Just the honest reality of shipping AI in fintech. First posts are live: derivai.substack.com
