Joe Bruechner

I'm a software engineer who likes building things from the ground up — full-stack platforms, developer tools, and ML pipelines. Most of my time is spent somewhere between a Python backend and a Next.js frontend, usually with AI woven in.

The biggest thing I've built is Atticus AI, an AI workspace for small law firms and solo attorneys. Multi-tenant platform with RAG search, research chat on AWS Bedrock, document generation, Stripe billing, and HIPAA-compliant auth — all built and maintained solo.

I also build developer tools — a Linear CLI for managing issues from the terminal, a Notion CLI for piping pages into AI contexts, and a Claude Code agent that plugs into Linear workflows. I gravitate toward software that does one thing well for the people who need it.

I'm looking for teams that care about craft and ship with intention. If that sounds like yours — let's chat
