Thorium Development Group

Thorium Development Group is an engineering advisory firm focused on the governance gap in AI-assisted software development. We help SaaS engineering teams build enforceable constraints, automated review workflows, and auditable decision trails.

Our engagements are hands-on and time-bounded — assess risk, design a governance framework, implement it in your workflows, and transfer the capability to your team.

25+ years across principal engineer, tech lead, and CTO roles in defense contracting and enterprise software — scaling backend data-intensive applications and automating complex processes. He co-founded a web3/DeFi automation platform requiring the same rigor in constraint enforcement and auditability at the speed of decentralized infrastructure.

For the last two years, Mike has focused exclusively on AI automation, governance, and auditing systems — applying a deep systems engineering background to the challenge of maintaining architectural integrity when AI is generating an increasing share of your codebase.
