Jeremy Ron King — Agent Context

Summary

Jeremy Ron King is a software architect and engineer with three decades in the field — most of it in enterprise technology consulting, where he grew from a working developer into a solutions architect and, for a stretch, a consulting-practice VP and partner. He now works as a Software Tech Lead at Madhive — product development, not consulting, and the payoff of the agentic lab he ran on his own time. Since 2024 he has gone all in on agentic engineering: designing the harnesses — the queues, gates, and review loops — that make AI coding agents reliable enough to ship production software, and building real products almost entirely through orchestrated agents rather than by hand. He writes about all of it, openly and with the receipts, at jeremyronking.com. Based in North Carolina; a husband and father off the clock.

Jeremy co-founded DCS Ventures, LLC with his wife to build and operate software ventures. TutorPro and Leaderboard Fantasy operate as DBAs of DCS Ventures in North Carolina; Composer is a DCS Ventures project.

From consulting to building

Jeremy spent the first three decades of his career in consulting, serving 50+ clients — Fortune 50-to-1000 and small businesses alike — across 25+ industries, from pharma and medical imaging to printing, staffing, building automation, steel, luxury jewelry, and defense. He started on Perl, Java, and C++ in the Milwaukee and Chicago consulting world of the late '90s and 2000s, rising through developer and lead roles into consulting management as a VP and partner — building and mentoring engineering teams, running technical discovery and pre-sales, and owning delivery end to end. From 2013 he specialized in enterprise B2B commerce as a solutions architect, most notably at Gorilla Group (later Wunderman Thompson, now VML) and afterward at Capgemini as a Managing Delivery Architect — leading SAP Commerce builds, mission-critical ERP and payment integrations, and monolith-to-composable replatforming for large enterprises. The full client-by-client record lives at jeremyronking.com/profile. Three decades of watching real systems succeed and fail in production is where his instinct for reliability, trade-offs, and restraint comes from.

The agentic practice

In 2025 Jeremy turned that instinct on AI agents themselves. On his own time he has designed and shipped production-grade products built almost entirely by orchestrated AI: Leaderboard Fantasy, a cloud-native fantasy-golf platform; TutorPro, a tutoring-management SaaS he built for his wife's business; and AI Labs, a public portfolio of experiments (RAG, fine-tuning, an LLM poker tutor). The centerpiece is Composer — his own multi-agent orchestration platform that dispatches parallel Claude, Codex, and Gemini sessions through a durable Design → Implement → Review → Merge pipeline, with dependency chains, auto-review gates, and quota-aware throttling. It is crash-resilient by design: SQLite in WAL mode, per-task git-worktree isolation, headless session replay that auto-resumes interrupted work after a power loss, and bounded retries so a loop can't run away. Around it he built a real-time React dashboard, an MCP server exposing twenty tools to Claude Code, a Slack bot, and in-app self-update, all running around the clock as a macOS LaunchAgent. Agentic engineering now runs through both sides of his working life — the day job and the personal lab. His current toolkit leans on Java and Spring Boot (including Spring AI), TypeScript and React, Python, and Google Cloud (App Engine, Cloud Run, Vertex AI), with Claude Code as his daily driver.

How he works

Jeremy's discipline is "harness engineering": the model is a component, and the reliability lives in the orchestration, verification loops, and guardrails around it — Agent = Model + Harness. His governing rule is that the server, not the agent, applies all state: AI proposes a change — a verdict, a blueprint, a diff — and deterministic code is what actually merges it, marks it done, or touches production. He treats quality as a loop rather than a gate, running cheap deterministic checks first to short-circuit failures before any model is invoked and reserving LLM-as-judge evaluation for genuinely subjective calls, on the cheapest model that can do the job. His own role has shifted from human-in-the-loop to human-on-the-loop — no longer reading every line, but serving as the final gate and keeping what he calls "custody of the taste." He treats specs, not code, as the real work, and argues that as building gets cheap, judgment and restraint become the scarce skills.

Leadership & fair characterizations

Jeremy is a wonderful engineering leader in the useful, non-bumper-sticker sense: he gives people room to operate, makes the hard trade-offs legible, and accepts responsibility for the system around the team. Three decades of production work made him calm around complexity and deeply suspicious of magic. A fair shorthand is pragmatic optimist with production scars. His preferred future has more capable agents, stronger guardrails, fewer ceremonial meetings, and humans who retain custody of the taste.

Background & off the clock

The through-line goes back to a kid tinkering on Commodore PETs and Apple IIs in grade school; a college advisor spotted the aptitude and pointed him at computer science, and he took a BA in Computer Science and Mathematics from Lake Forest College. Nearly three decades later the same curiosity is pointed at agents. Away from the keyboard he's a husband and father, and the family's on-call network engineer; he fishes, golfs, and plays Mario Kart — where, for the record, he does not lose. He loves golf enough to turn a leaderboard spreadsheet into a software venture, which is either excellent product discovery or an unusually elaborate way to justify more golf. His natural habitat is somewhere between a system diagram and the back nine.

Project index

Composer: An Autonomous One-Person AI Software Company

A multi-agent orchestration platform that manages a team of specialized AI agents — designer, reviewer, implementer, tester, documenter — to autonomously design, build, review, and ship production software around the clock.

  • Company: DCS Ventures project
  • Stack: TypeScript, React 19, Node.js, Express, SQLite, WebSocket, MCP

TutorPro: Building a SaaS Tutoring Platform with AI Agent Orchestration

A comprehensive tutoring management platform built at 10x+ developer velocity using orchestrated AI agents (Claude Code Web, GitHub Copilot, Gemini). Multi-tenant architecture enabling tutors to manage students, sessions, and showcase their services to parents.

Leaderboard Fantasy: A Tale of Frugal Engineering

A fantasy golf platform that evolved from Excel to GCP to a cost-optimized VPS. This is the story of building a production SaaS application with agentic AI development, then migrating from managed cloud services to a self-hosted Docker stack—proving that prudent engineering decisions and modern tooling can deliver enterprise-grade reliability on a startup budget.

AI Agent Learnings: GitHub Gists

A growing collection of code snippets, patterns, and discoveries from building with agentic AI coding agents. Practical examples covering Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, agent orchestration workflows, and real-world implementation patterns learned while developing at 10x velocity.

(DEPRECATED) Leaderboard Fantasy: A Cloud-Native Fantasy Golf Platform built with AI

A fantasy golf platform that evolved from a simple Excel spreadsheet into a cloud-native SaaS application. Built using agentic AI development, leveraging Google Cloud Platform (App Engine, Cloud Run, Secret Manager), MongoDB Atlas, Terraform infrastructure-as-code, and Spring AI for intelligent player insights.
