Engineer-MBA. Joined as #30 and spent 6 years at Segment (the customer data platform, acquired by Twilio for $3.2B) as a Solutions Architect and then Senior Sales Engineer. Drove $5M in annual bookings, guided 40+ enterprise accounts on data architecture, and was one of three people who launched the EMEA HQ in Dublin — scaling the SE team 4x and running 30+ technical workshops.Since then I've been building, not just selling: a RAG pipeline over messy medical-billing documents (CPT codes, payer policies, claims guidelines) that cut research time ~50%, a steganographic image-watermarking app, and a handful of agentic workflows and full-stack tools with Claude Code and Lovable. I also ran investor relations and the financial model for an early-stage entertainment dining startup, and angel invest in AI/consumer (Limitless → Meta, Augie → JWX, Studdy YC S23, longevityhealth.me, etc). The short version: a customer-facing and solutions engineer who can sit with a data team in the weeds, build the POC, and make the executive business case. That combination is rare, and it's exactly what good solutions and forward-deployed roles need. Looking for: Solutions Engineer / Solutions Architect, Customer Success, an AI GTM/strategy role, Chief of Staff, or Forward Deployed Engineer. Seed–Series A preferred, open to all stages — strong bias toward AI-native teams. | ||
