Stephan Schwab has been programming since 1981 and has worked on a variety of different platforms and with about 20
different programming languages. In his current role, he focuses primarily on what users and companies really want to do with software
and how to develop software that excites customers. He grew up in Germany and has lived and worked in various countries. He speaks fluent German, English, and Spanish.
Depending on the project, we bring in trusted associates with deep expertise in specific domains. These are seasoned practitioners we've worked with over the years, not subcontractors from a catalog. Each engagement gets the right combination of skills: infrastructure specialists, security experts, data practitioners, UX researchers, or additional developers. The team composition fits the problem, not the other way around.
Every member of our team works alongside AI assistants daily. Not chatbots. Thinking partners embedded in our development environments, our analysis pipelines, our writing workflows. The gap between intent and working code collapsed. We describe what a system should do, the AI writes it, we review, refine, and integrate. The same approach applies to analyzing legacy codebases, exploring architectural options, and drafting documentation.
The bottleneck moved from typing code to making good decisions about code. That's where decades of experience become the differentiator, not a liability. AI handles volume and velocity. We handle the hard part: your business context, trade-off decisions, and systems that actually serve your users.
After all, we practice what we preach. Our own products, Caimito Navigator and Nilo Assistant, were built with AI collaboration and use AI at their core. Both exist because AI made it possible for a small team to build what used to require a department.
