About

I'm Philip — a software engineer based in the UK, currently at Meta. I work on backend and infrastructure systems, and I spend a good deal of the time around that on a homelab I treat as a second engineering practice: self-hosted services, embedded hardware, and a coding-agent workflow I've pushed about as far as it'll go.

Glitched Pixel is where I write about that last part. The articles here are about working with coding agents and agentic development — the practical, hard-won stuff: wiring agents into real toolchains, where they earn their keep and where they don't, and how to keep the whole thing reproducible rather than magic.

This is deliberately independent of my day job. Everything here is my own work and my own opinion — not Meta's, and nothing here represents my employer.

If something here is useful, or you think I've got it wrong, I'd like to hear it. You'll find me on LinkedIn and GitHub.
