Shawn McBurnie is an Applied AI Engineer based in Minneapolis with 20 years of independent system engineering experience, now operating at the leading edge of agentic AI development. He builds production-grade AI systems with rigorous evaluation discipline, including a 7-agent FastAPI pipeline backed by Brier-calibrated specifications and a 1,500-line product spec currently in invite-only beta. Shawn authors Claude Code skills with formal test contracts, architects multi-agent workflows with governance frameworks built in from the start, and applies the same evaluation-methodology rigor to commercial software development gated by 10,000+ automated tests. His approach treats AI externalization as an engineering problem—designing artifacts precise enough that capable developers can ship from them without hand-holding. Shawn brings expert-level prompt architecture, agentic system design, and a rare combination of builder instincts and evaluation discipline to any team serious about moving AI from prototype to production.
