I'm Isaac Herbst
Leading engineering at a healthcare AI startup — wiring up RAG pipelines, distributed AWS infra, and the occasional Chrome extension. Started in the backend, vacationed in the frontend, now mostly live in the cloud. This site is the one thing I haven't shipped to production. Thanks to Bootstrap, and to Claude Code for the 2026 glow-up (it promised it wouldn't tell anyone I just typed "spice it up" and walked away) ;)
What I work with
My toolkit
My Stack
what’s left of it, anyway:
- TS
- AWS
TS, because the LLMs are really good at it. AWS, because somebody still has to own the cloud.
My Toolbox
- Claude Code
…and whatever it’s pulling in under the hood. I still read the diffs — just not all of them.
My Education
…except for the foundation it gave me — that still pays rent, even when half the job is now wrangling models.
PCS — Software Development
plus a Master’s in Talmudic Law — surprisingly transferable to debugging.
