• AUTHENTIA ENTERPRISE INTELLIGENCE

  HUMAN-IN-COMMAND

  Seven-model evaluator panel pricing high-value collateral across six asset classes, graded against real recorded sale prices. Models are graded, never trusted — a deterministic kernel is the only pricing path, and RAG over a vectorized ontology data lake grounds every valuation in traceable evidence, not model recall. Every judgement sealed to an append-only, hash-chained ledger. Self-hosted, governed on IBM watsonx, every consequential call held by a human.

[ 02 :: OPERATION_LOG ]

1. 2025 — NOW · Remote

   CTO & VP of Product · Authentia Enterprise Intelligence

   PARTNER :: IBM watsonx Engineering Partner

   • >Engineered an enterprise reasoning and orchestration platform spanning insurance underwriting and specialty banking — credit evaluation, collateral valuation and loan-to-value analysis on one governed reasoning core. It produces reference analysis for human underwriters and credit officers; it does not decide.
   • >Built champion/challenger evaluation: reasoning agents run in parallel with human experts, scoring agreement, compliance alignment and decision drift — autonomy recommended only where the evidence supports it.
   • >Architected RAG over a vectorized ontology data lake, grounding every reference valuation in traceable enterprise evidence rather than model recall. Governance-first on IBM watsonx; multi-model bench; tamper-evident audit trails.

   CTO & VP of Product · Authentia Digital Product Passport

   TEAM :: 4–6 engineers · every one personally sourced, interviewed and hired

   • >Built the engineering team from scratch — sourced, interviewed and hired every engineer on it — and lead all 4–6 across both Authentia product lines.
   • >Architected digital product passports for diamonds, luxury goods and other high-value assets — a cryptographically anchored digital twin per item, origin through manufacturing to finished piece; tens of thousands of carats of natural diamonds under verifiable provenance.
   • >Co-invented a computer-vision pipeline fusing laser marking with crystallographic topography analysis to defeat counterfeit provenance markings — patent application pending, named inventor.
   • >Led the technical sales cycle with a global luxury jewelry house whose laser tags were being reproduced on lab-grown stones — diagnosed the failure mode and negotiated adoption of crystallographic topography analysis in their place.

   • >Led a 6–8 person team to stand up GigaStar end-to-end — the first SEC-regulated (Reg CF) crowdfunding platform for YouTube creators, letting fans participate directly in channel revenue.
   • >Structured fractional royalty offerings as compliant securities: creators raised immediate capital while token holders earned a share of monetized channel revenue.
   • >Designed tiered, time-bound offering events that converted fan audiences into investors without creators ceding ownership of their channels.

   engagement delivered through GA Tech Solutions

   TEAM :: 20+ developers plus technicians under team leads

   • >Led an engineering organization of 20+ developers plus implementation, communications, maintenance and navigation technicians under team leads.
   • >Hired and trained my own successor as CTO, handing over the platform and the engineering organization intact — still in production five years on.
   • >Took the largest ferry operator in the Caribbean from paper-based workflows to one integrated platform — ticketing, access control, point-of-sale and mobile POS, back office, executive dashboards. 30M+ passengers boarded; in production since 2018.
   • >Owned production operations down to the physical layer — hands-on managed the dedicated undersea fiber links connecting Cozumel, Isla Mujeres, Cancún and Playa del Carmen, and installed the hotspots carrying access control and mobile POS traffic, through Caribbean hurricane seasons.
   • >Replaced legacy identification with facial-recognition access control — chronic terminal queues eliminated; the passenger app drove organic growth in tourist volume.

  BIP84 SPEC-VERIFIED

  A real Bitcoin address in about twelve milliseconds, derived in a browser tab with nothing on the wire — and it would accept an actual on-chain deposit. Twelve BIP39 words out of the browser's own CSPRNG, BIP32 down m/84'/0'/0'/0/0, out the far end a native SegWit bc1 address on mainnet. Checked against BIP84’s own test vector from the spec.

  The genre taxonomy behind Octopus's discovery engine, lifted out and published on its own. Models drafted the artists and the one-line biographies; the judgement — what stayed, what was cut, where one pillar ends and the next begins — was mine. It ships as a dictionary, so nothing infers at runtime and nothing leaves the device.
