I'm Natali Cutic. I'm a DevOps engineer and cloud architect based in Israel. Most of my professional life is spent making AWS, Kubernetes, and Terraform do things they don't want to do.
A little over a year ago, my husband and I started building a personal AI Chief of Staff for the two of us. Its name is George. It lives on WhatsApp. It runs 24/7. It's the most useful piece of software we've ever owned.
This newsletter is the field guide we wished we'd had — the gotchas, the architecture decisions, the weeks where everything broke, and the quiet morning summaries that have changed how we run our life.
Engineers, builders, and anyone who has spent a Saturday at a coffee shop sketching their own personal-assistant architecture on a napkin.
If that's you, subscribe. New post every Sunday. No upsell.
I write about my own systems and my own life with my husband's blessing. Nothing here will name a third party, quote a private message, or expose anything that isn't either ours to share or generic enough to be safely fictional. The point is the patterns, not the gossip.
