Executive AI technology leader specializing in agentic AI and enterprise transformation

22y exp

“Candidate is exploring a startup in the autonomous agentic AI space and is approaching it with a disciplined founder mindset. They are evaluating market opportunity, competition, customer pain, ROI, technical feasibility, and MVP options while already speaking with potential customers across verticals to validate needs and buying processes.”

“Senior engineering/technology leader who has defined and delivered a multi-year roadmap to modernize platforms and embed AI, leading global teams through cloud-native and microservices migrations on AWS/Azure. Demonstrated measurable outcomes including 99.99% uptime, 40% fewer incidents, 25% faster delivery, 5x scalability, and $30M in new business opportunities, while scaling a 100+ person distributed org with strong OKR-driven execution and mentorship culture.”

“Senior product engineering and data architecture leader who has owned end-to-end solutions for enterprise analytics and legal search platforms, including work for Sony Pictures Entertainment and Accenture Legal. Combines executive-level architecture and team leadership with hands-on experimentation in modern AI systems, recently building a multimodal Hugging Face agent that significantly exceeded its benchmark score.”

“Google backend engineer with strong experience in large-scale identity, membership, and access-control systems. Notable work includes reconciling customer IDs across 2B+ roster records and leading a 0-to-1 Drive sharing feature to classify external users as crossover members, with a strong emphasis on correctness, rollout safety, and low-latency service design.”

“LLM/multimodal systems builder who developed DuetGen, a practical multimodal interleaved text-image generation system using a decoupled MLLM planner and video-pretrained diffusion transformer for high-quality image generation with step-wise alignment. Built a 298K-sample interleaved dataset across 8 domains/151 subtasks and deployed a GPT-5-based automated evaluation framework; also has LangChain-based multimodal agent orchestration experience with custom state management and reliability testing.”

“Chief of Staff to the COO / Strategy & Business Development leader at Annapurna who unified four distinct entertainment verticals (film, TV, interactive, theatre) into the company’s first cross-functional five-year plan. Built standardized pipeline reporting, forecasting models grounded in real execution rates, and executive dashboards that improved decision-making speed and COO leverage while navigating creative/finance tension and sensitive information.”

“Robotics/embedded engineer with hands-on experience building real-time control systems on RP2040 (hydroponics automation, 1-DOF helicopter stabilization) and full ROS 2 navigation stacks in simulation (URDF, TF, PID, A* in RViz/Gazebo). Demonstrates strong low-level protocol work (timing-sensitive one-wire in C) and rigorous debugging across hardware and software using UART instrumentation and oscilloscope verification, plus reproducible workflows with Docker and CI/CD (GitHub Actions/GitLab, incl. Sandia National Labs).”

“Robotics engineer who helped bootstrap Meta’s humanoid robotics effort, building simulation training and deployment infrastructure for vision-language-action (VLA) models. Evaluated multiple physics backends (Bullet, MuJoCo, Isaac, internal) to minimize sim-to-real gap and addressed control-loop frequency mismatches via sequence optimization/MPC-like approaches and trajectory-output modifications. Published research that contributed a new addition to ROS 2 and has built ROS2 node stacks spanning control, perception, teleop, tactile sensing, and imaging.”
