Founding and leading an AI testing company

At Qualiti, I founded and led a company focused on AI-driven software testing. The role brought together product development, technical strategy, customer relationships, team leadership, and company operations.

AI-driven software testing

Building the product and the business

Developing the technology was part of a broader responsibility: determining what customers needed, shaping the product, assembling the team, and building the company around it.

My work spanned AI testing capabilities, product direction, engineering execution, partnerships, fundraising (more than $12M raised), and strategic opportunities.

Connecting technical work to company priorities

Leading the company required decisions across disciplines. Product choices affected engineering priorities. Customer conversations informed the roadmap. Financial and organizational constraints shaped what we could pursue and when.

That experience strengthened my ability to work across those boundaries and keep the team focused on a shared direction.

What I carry forward

Qualiti helped shape my approach to AI products and technical leadership.

I bring that company-wide perspective to my current work: understanding the customer problem, developing a capable team, and connecting the technology to a viable product and business.
