Matt Olds

Director of Security, CloudOps, and IT Seattle, WA

"I build security and IT programs for work. The tools I build for fun."

Just a curious person who keeps looking over the fence... and then gets handed whatever was on the other side. Professionally that's meant a 13-year climb through IT into leading security end-to-end at TuneIn: the software on the devices, the hardware in the cloud, the training in the heads, the guiding policies, and processes streamlining it all. Personally it means side projects: software I build because the thing I want doesn't exist yet, at least not the way I want it to.

fait: free AI tracker

bifoc.us/matt-olds/fait

Opinionated work tracking for AI-augmented engineering. Connected to the productivity tool your team already runs.

A CLI that wraps Jira or Notion with semantic types: Decisions, Findings, Work Items, Runbooks. Allows work history, supersession chains, and freshness to become a queryable state instead of a buried markdown. Surfaces AI work and thinking in the tool your team already uses to track these items and allows human input to feed back into the AI.

  • Config-driven: logical names in YAML, real Jira/Notion IDs resolved at runtime
  • Resolves at read time: supersession chains, link traversal, and staleness chased server-side
  • Search-before-write so duplicate prevention is a guided action, not a hope
  • Per-issue LLM cost attribution from Claude Code session JSONLs
  • Makes tracking work easier for you and the AI
