About
Ariel Azoulay — builder, architect, founder.
I'm Ariel Azoulay — engineering leader, software architect, and founder of Semantiv AI.
I build systems that make complex things accessible through structure. Right now that means typed semantic middleware for composable AI agent systems — making AI produce structured, observable programs instead of opaque outputs.
Before Semantiv, I led engineering teams at Moody's Analytics, shipped products at Spotify and McKinsey (via ThoughtWorks), and built real-time platforms at Nokia. I studied scientific computing at Florida State and did NLP research at Carnegie Mellon.
I write about AI architecture, typed systems, functional programming, category theory, and occasionally about building a company while raising two small kids in South Florida.
