Artificial Intelligence Manager
I am currently the Artificial Intelligence Program Manager at Baker Hughes, focusing on developing the AI solutions our clients need, particularly in Generative and Agentic AI. I take pride in being part of a diverse team that operates like a disruptive startup within the global energy sector, collaborating with exceptional partners such as AWS and EPAM. With over 25 years of experience leading successful AI projects, I have had the privilege of making a global impact in various roles, including serving as a startup CTO and AI Program Manager at two Forbes Global 500 companies. I founded Techlog, where I wrote the first line of code, became the first employee, and played a key role in its development. Additionally, I served as the Director of Innovation and Digital Transformation at SLB.

Cultural Fit Analysis
The candidate's diverse experience across different roles (developer, manager, director, investor, advisor) and companies (startup, large enterprise) suggests adaptability and a broad perspective. Their focus on AI/ML and digital transformation aligns with modern tech-driven cultures. The description of joining Baker Hughes as 'part of a dynamic and diverse team that operates like a startup' indicates a preference for agile and innovative environments. The long tenure at SLB in various evolving roles also points to loyalty and ability to grow within an organization. The personal project 'UOM' (though details are sparse) and angel investor role show initiative beyond primary employment.
Soft Skills & Operational Fit
The candidate's career progression from software developer to various management and director roles, including CTO of a startup, indicates strong leadership, strategic thinking, and project management capabilities.
