Alex is joined by Guy Podjarny, serial entrepreneur and Founder and CEO at Tessl (and Founder of Snyk).

In the episode, they discuss Guy’s incredible journey from founding Snyk (valued at $8.5B at its peak) to leaving the unicorn he built to tackle the next frontier: reimagining software development for the AI era.

Guy reveals why he believes software development will evolve from code-centric to spec-centric, how Tessl raised $125M to build this vision, and the lessons he’s learned about scaling AI-native companies in this ‘gold rush’ environment.

He discusses the challenges of building for an unknown future, managing high-caliber teams, and why he's already rebuilt his product three times.
