Services

Hands-on senior leadership that ships production data and AI systems, as fractional leadership or a scoped build, with a team in the US or Latin America when you need the capacity.

Fractional data and AI leadership

The problem: Leadership has stopped trusting the numbers, the roadmap depends on data and AI work nobody senior owns, and a full-time hire is months away.

What we deliver

  • Assessment of the data foundation and a plan to build trust in it
  • Metric definitions, standards and governance your teams actually follow
  • Architecture reviews and technical due diligence
  • A prioritized data and AI roadmap tied to business outcomes

Engagement and outcomes

Typical engagement: Part-time embedded retainer, often paired with a hands-on build

Outcomes:

  • Core metrics the leadership team trusts
  • Clear ownership and governance for data

Technologies we use

Snowflake or DatabricksdbtAWS or GCP

Production AI systems

The problem: AI prototypes are easy to demo and hard to trust. Without evals, monitoring and cost controls they stall before production or get expensive once they are there.

What we deliver

  • LLM-powered matching and enrichment of product catalogs
  • Search relevance, ranking and recommendation systems
  • Agents and RAG systems grounded in your own data
  • Orchestration harnesses that let agents run scientific and biotech pipelines
  • Eval harnesses built before launch, not after
  • LLM cost right-sizing: spend matched to value, smaller models where evals allow

Engagement and outcomes

Typical engagement: Scoped build, often followed by a fractional retainer

Outcomes:

  • AI features running in production
  • Evals that catch regressions before customers do
  • LLM spend that tracks the value it creates

Modern data platforms and observability

The problem: Legacy databases and manual reports cannot keep up, and data problems reach customers or executives before the data team hears about them.

What we deliver

  • Cloud data platforms on Snowflake or Databricks, modeled with dbt
  • Orchestration with Airflow or Dagster
  • Self-serve analytics apps, including Streamlit in Snowflake
  • Anomaly detection and data-quality monitoring with alerting
  • Healthcare claims ingestion: medical, pharmacy and eligibility files
  • Legacy-to-cloud modernization without disrupting the business

Engagement and outcomes

Typical engagement: Scoped build with a clear handoff to your team

Outcomes:

  • A platform your team can extend on its own
  • Data issues caught before they reach users
  • Faster answers through self-serve analytics

Team building and delivery

The problem: You need more engineering capacity than you can hire, and outside vendors are hard to evaluate until you are already committed.

What we deliver

  • Vendor selection and RFPs run on your behalf
  • Teams in the US and Latin America, selected, stood up and led by us
  • AI-accelerated engineering in the Anthropic Claude Code and OpenAI Codex ecosystems: agentic coding workflows, CI and code review
  • Onboarding, documentation and knowledge transfer to your team

Engagement and outcomes

Typical engagement: Team extension, ongoing or tied to a scoped build

Outcomes:

  • Capacity that overlaps your working hours
  • Engineering practices that hold up as the team grows
  • A team that can keep running without us

How we engage

Three ways to work together. Most clients start with one and add another as needs change.

Fractional leadership

Ongoing, part-time embedded

A senior technical leader who scopes product and data and engineering strategy, and builds solutions with modern AI code orchestration.

Scoped build

Typically 6-12 weeks

Fixed scope and clear deliverables, ending with a system in production and a handoff your team owns. Larger programs run in phases.

Team extension

We select, stand up and lead

A team in the US or Latin America, led by us and working your hours, for when you need capacity.
