Director of AI Product & Engineering.
Specialising in A.I and IoT products across marketing, smart home, energy, agriculture and automotive sectors.
Intro
I’m a European based technology and product leader with over twenty years experience, specialising in A.I. and IoT products that drive business transformation and value.
My unique "unicorn" skillset combines high-level tech leadership with hands-on hardware and software architecture and engineering expertise.
This hybrid approach allows me to:
Quickly validate product strategy
I can rapidly design and build prototypes that validate proper market fit and prove business value, often within the first month.Fail faster, cheaper
This method significantly reduces time and cost, allowing us to pivot quickly and minimise risk.Accelerate time-to-market
Once value is proven, I scale the team and bring the product to market in under half the time a traditional product team would normally take.
My background combining software, hardware and system architecture allows me to lead large teams of multidisciplinary designers, technologists, developers and engineers and having spent the last two decades working at some of the very best creative and technology companies in the world, I’m also able to set the vision for each project.
I’m somebody that enjoys working at C-suite level one minute, then rolling up my sleeves to work hands-on leading the teams back in the studio.
Many people know me from some of the fairly famous connected experiences that I’ve created over the years and I still enjoy coming up with ideas like that from time to time.
