Altered Craft is written by Sam Keen — former lead architect in AWS’s GenAI innovation lab, author of Clean Architecture with Python (Packt, 2025), and co-lead of Portland AI Engineers (1,100+ members).
After 25 years shipping production software at startups, Nike, Lululemon, and AWS, I now research and write full-time about AI’s impact on software craftsmanship. Substance over hype. What actually works, documented through hands-on experiments.
