AI in NYC: How Tenex Builds an AI-Native Engineering Team — Alex Lieberman & CJ Hess

Alex Lieberman and CJ Hess of Tenex discuss how an AI-native engineering consultancy organizes its work around outcomes, not hours. They cover story-point compensation, the MetaHarness workflow that keeps plans and decisions in Git, token economics and model choices, the gap between enterprise AI rollouts and production agents, why vertical AI and mid-tier SaaS may or may not survive, and what this means for jobs and New York's AI scene.
