Our Authors
The experts and enthusiasts who write for AI Coder HQ.
Alex Rivera
MS Computer Science (MIT), Former GitHub Dev
Alex Rivera is a full-stack engineer with 8 years of production experience across TypeScript and Python. He has evaluated every major AI coding assistant since GitHub Copilot launched, focusing on real-world accuracy in complex codebases rather than toy benchmarks. Alex documents his tests on open-source projects to give developers an unfiltered view of what these tools actually do under pressure.
Priya Sharma
BSc Computer Science (Stanford), Former Senior Engineer at Stripe
Priya Sharma is a full-stack developer and AI tooling researcher who has evaluated over 40 AI coding assistants since GPT-3 launched. She writes from the trenches — testing each tool in production codebases across Python, TypeScript, and Go. Her reviews measure what developers actually care about: suggestion accuracy, context awareness, and how much time the tool genuinely saves versus how much it wastes.
