- Developed a forward-looking technology roadmap for Callimachus, defining future enhancements across AI/ML capabilities, transcript intelligence, automation, scalability, cloud optimization, and platform modernization initiatives.
Founder | CTO
DecisionMe
- Accelerated executive decision-making with a cloud-based AI experimentation platform that delivered large language model (LLM) -driven insights with over 90% accuracy.
- Increased trust in AI adoption by engineering a prompt template framework with compliance guardrails, cutting LLM output variability by 43% and delivering bias-mitigated recommendations.
- Enabled real-time scenario planning for enterprise leaders by deploying Monte Carlo simulations at cloud scale, reducing analysis runtime from hours to less than a second.
- Reduced risk and increased confidence in AI adoption by designing secure AWS agent-based infrastructure (Bedrock/SageMaker) and creating the decision articulation score (DAS), enabling faster deployments and continuous model optimization.
- Embedded AI experimentation into executive workflows, accelerating adoption across leadership teams.
AI Developer
REBECCA ZUNG, LLC
- Reviewed an AWS-hosted web app, identifying security gaps and performance issues. Created a prioritized remediation plan and defined reproducible metrics to track progress and measure improvements as issues were resolved.
- Designed and delivered a V2 AWS architecture for an AI-driven, attorney-client privileged incident platform. Enabled secure knowledge extraction, faster insights, and defined a 12-layer model for scalable, enterprise-grade operations.
- Developed cost, effort, and delivery timelines, defining resources and milestones. Built and presented a Monte Carlo analysis to the CEO to assess scenarios, risks, and confidence in delivery outcomes.
Senior AI/RAG Developer
THE CALLIMACHUS PROJECT, INC.
- Designed and deployed a production-grade, AWS-native AI pipeline that converts interview audio into structured, speaker-aware knowledge artifacts using Transcribe, Step Functions, SQS, and encrypted S3 with enterprise-grade security controls.
- Engineered a transcript normalization framework with structured JSON, timestamped Q&A turns, and filler-word filtering to improve chunking accuracy and enable reliable AI-driven knowledge extraction and artifact generation.
- Launched the company’s secure AWS foundation, including website hosting, CloudFront distribution, domain management, email infrastructure, encryption defaults, and governance controls aligned with enterprise best practices.
- Served as strategic consultant to design and launch Callimachus’ AI and AWS foundation—aligning vision, architecture, security, and execution—transforming a concept into a secure, production-ready knowledge platform positioned for enterprise growth.
Senior Director
Northrop Grumman
- Enhanced mission resilience in contested environments by delivering the contested logistics in a Box (CLiMB) platform, deploying small language models on edge devices for AI-driven sustainment in disconnected operations.
- Improved F-35 sustainment forecasting accuracy to within 4.5% of demand forecasts using Monte Carlo simulations on 50,000+ parts, accelerating sustainment planning and reducing costs.
- Safeguarded mission-critical expertise by authoring and launching a knowledge capture system with RAG, enabling rapid retrieval and scalable retention of sensitive information.
- Reduced operational bottlenecks on $100+ million in assets by engineering a flexible, low-code EDI platform that adapted to evolving government architecture requirements in real time.
- Secured $12 million and tripled AI/analytics adoption by directing the supply chain software center of excellence, achieving 98% readiness for special equipment mission aircraft worldwide.
- Directed cross-functional teams to scale AI adoption across multiple programs, establishing governance for responsible AI deployment.
Founder | CTO | CEO
2Is Inc. (Acquired by Northrop Grumman)
- Delivered global sustainment reliability with a SaaS analytics platform for the DoD, achieving 99.9% uptime worldwide and reducing sustainment costs by 23%.
- Improved procurement pricing accuracy with AutoPrice, an AI pricing engine adopted enterprise-wide by the Defense Logistics Agency.
- Strengthened oversight and anomaly detection with a rule-based visual expert system (ESP), scanning 4.5 million parts nightly in less than two hours using 100+ machine learning (ML) rules.
- Positioned 2Is as a recognized leader in logistics AI, driving innovation and client adoption that culminated in its acquisition by Northrop Grumman.
Experience
Multi-criteria Decision Making Application
https://www.decisionme.comKey features include AI-guided decision steps, customizable weighting, scenario modeling, collaboration tools, and detailed report generation. It works across devices and helps reduce bias by focusing on facts rather than emotions.
Benefits include faster decision-making, stronger confidence, reduced stress, and better team alignment. DecisionMe raDAR handles complex, multi-criteria choices easily—whether personal or business—and provides clear explanations for every outcome. In short, DecisionMe raDAR transforms decision-making into a smarter, more objective, and stress-free experience.
Monte Carlo Supply Chain Sustainment Modeling
The initiative accelerated sustainment planning cycles, reduced lifecycle costs, and strengthened readiness outcomes across partner nations. I designed a dynamic visualization platform to present model outputs and scenario-based insights to executive stakeholders, enabling informed, data-driven decisions under uncertainty.
The results influenced long-term procurement and readiness strategies, demonstrating the power of predictive analytics and digital simulation to modernize defense logistics and drive measurable operational resilience.
Center of Excellence
I directed cross-functional teams to design and execute a comprehensive digital roadmap, aligning technology investments with mission-critical sustainment goals. I also established governance frameworks to ensure the ethical and responsible deployment of AI, enabling scalable and transparent decision-making. Long-term strategies for AI integration, predictive logistics, and operational automation were developed, resulting in a 98% readiness rate for special equipment mission aircraft worldwide. Finally, I partnered with engineering, IT, and program leadership to define data-driven transformation objectives, implement key performance dashboards, and prioritize high-impact initiatives.
This effort positioned the organization as a leader in digital sustainment innovation, accelerating operational agility and optimizing lifecycle cost management across global defense operations.
