About
👋 Hi, my name is Sean Falconer. I currently lead AI product and strategy at Confluent, where my team is responsible for Confluent Intelligence: a platform for building real-time, context-aware AI systems. That work spans streaming-native ML, event-driven agents (including the open-source Flink Agents project), and the Real-Time Context Engine which connects live data, stream processing, and low-latency serving so AI systems can reason over what’s happening now, not what happened yesterday. Earlier in my career, I was a hands-on engineer and researcher: competing in the ACM ICPC world programming finals, publishing academic research in AI and data-intensive systems, teaching computer science, and writing production code that has processed billions of events.
