Thanks for taking us to the top dreamstories.ai.

Our interview today is with this founder of Astronomer.

Yes, the code play Astronomer.

It's Ry Walker.

Now, Ry launched Astronomer in 2015 and walked away in 2022 during their $213 million Series C when the business was doing tens of millions of revenue.

And his new company he launched is really special.

In the next 20 minutes, he's going to show you exactly how this serial entrepreneur went from zero to product market fit in 60 days, why he believes that AI agents will 10X his revenue in the software development market overall, and lastly, how he's going to land a million dollar per year Fortune 50 customers.

Plus, he'll show you why merged pull requests are his North Star metric and the creative way he's actually getting marketers, not engineers, to virally spread his product.

Let's jump in.

Hey, folks.

My guest today is Ry Walker.

He is a Cincinnati-based entrepreneur and software engineer.

He's the founder and CEO of Tembo.io.

It's an AI developer teammate we're going to talk about here in a second.

Before that, though, he co-founded Astronomer, obviously, in the news today.

We'll talk about that as well, and Differential.

He's recognized for his leadership in tech.

Ry is also an active investor.

Ry, you ready to take us to the top?

I sure am.
