AI Tech Leader and Senior Executive | Digital Workforce & Agentic AI
I am a multi-award winning innovator, featured in WSJ, Forbes,... who is at the forefront of AI, Web3, IoT,... I combine my super technical skills [e.g. Rust programming, AI: github.com/mcp-ectors], with business acumen [e.g. setup IoT Business for Ubuntu, was chief innovation officer for Legal&General], with story-telling and strategy. I am bootstrapping an agentic AI startup but in the mean time I am looking for temporary/contract/fractional AI jobs, either as executive or technical architect.
