Strategy grounded in what's actually possible

Honest assessment of conditions. Practical direction through uncertainty. Work that addresses real situations.

Let's build something

Some minds see structure where others see noise.

It's pattern recognition applied to product work. How data relates. Where dependencies hide. Which decisions cascade into others.

Artificial intelligence has made that capability scalable.

Analytical work that required entire teams now happens in dialogue. Understanding accelerates. Possibilities expand. Judgment becomes more informed rather than overwhelmed.

The uncanny face of Sean Madrid
Sean MadridrunsShape Machine

I work across product, UX, and engineering to design systems that make complexity functional. My background spans product development, automation, and systems thinking. I focus on how tools like large language models amplify what's possible in strategy, analysis, and execution.

I've spent years working with blockchain infrastructure as a product. I believe in its power to create verifiable, trustless systems. The hype is noise. I prefer to focus on solving its actual problems.

Some words from past collaborators

Deep-thinker across many fields. Strong mind for business. Super kind and inclusive. Great leader. I’m impressed with the amount of detail in everything.

He helped me so much to grow within a new role and I’ve appreciated having a partner that I can call on whenever I need help or advice. I truly feel that he has the business’s best interests at heart and I’ve enjoyed getting to know him more on a personal level.

One of the most multi-faceted, caring people, with a great sense of humor, I’ve ever met.
