About Richard ×

Richard Amerman is an AI Workflow Engineer who transforms how development teams work by pioneering the systematic integration of large language models into production workflows. With over 30 years navigating the intersection of infrastructure, development, and emerging technologies, Richard currently leads innovation at CD Baby, where he architects GitHub Actions automation for AI agent orchestration while managing Azure infrastructure through Terraform and Kubernetes.

His journey through technology has been anything but conventional. From serving as a fifer in the US Army Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps to teaching hang gliding and performing as a professional musician, Richard brings a unique creative perspective to complex technical challenges. This diverse background, combined with founding his own company and holding leadership positions across multiple industries, has cultivated his defining trait: being especially comfortable with new technologies and challenges.

Today, Richard's daily immersion with ChatGPT, Claude, and GitHub Copilot produces reusable patterns that bridge traditional infrastructure expertise with modern AI capabilities. His technical foundation spans .NET C#, Python, JavaScript, virtualization technologies, and comprehensive CI/CD pipeline development. Active in AI development communities, he shares frameworks and insights that help others navigate the rapidly evolving landscape of AI-assisted development.

When not revolutionizing workflows in the music industry or serving as a Planning Commissioner for the City of Ridgefield, Richard can be found singing bass with the Vivace Voices caroling troupe—a reminder that the best solutions often come from those who see technology as just one instrument in life's larger orchestra.
