Scott Reed is a Director of Engineering at Storable, where he leads the Marine division and spearheads the integration of AI coding agents into production software development. He is the author of internal organizational guidance on the planning, verification, and ownership of AI generated code, and the creator of an extensive training series on AI assisted engineering.

Earlier in his career, Scott spent 18 months in a monastery, an experience that cemented his interest in classical philosophy, metaphysics, contemplation, and first-principles reasoning. That formation placed real weight on questions that have become unexpectedly relevant in the age of AI: what it means to be a human being rather than merely a producer of output, the relationship between being and doing, the limits of defining human value through efficiency or productivity, and the nature of knowledge, purpose, and human judgment. Today, Scott brings those questions into modern software engineering, helping developers navigate the surprisingly ancient philosophical problems that emerge as we increasingly collaborate with capable AI systems.
