David Beltran, principal engineer at bc9

David Beltran builds the work and stands behind it.

David is the principal engineer behind bc9 and the creator of Hayvenhurst, Guignet, Sirius Forester, Ametrite, and Catryna Wikinelli.

His work focuses on production software, local-first developer infrastructure, and the systems required to make AI-assisted engineering observable, testable, and accountable.

Clients work directly with him from architecture through delivery. Strategy does not disappear into a slide deck, and implementation is not handed to an anonymous bench.

How bc9 can help

// bring us the work that cannot stay fragile
├─Recover a difficult buildUntangle fragile architecture, stalled delivery, and production failures. Leave with a system the team can understand, operate, and extend.Architecture · Reliability · Delivery
├─Ship applied AIMove from a convincing prototype to an evaluated product with clear data boundaries, failure modes, observability, and cost controls.RAG · Agents · Evaluation
└─Design agent infrastructureBuild the local-first coordination, code intelligence, and verification layers that make coding agents useful in serious repositories.Tooling · Orchestration · Local-first
