I build production AI systems for enterprises.

Director of AI Forward Engineering at Maersk. Building GenAI systems that move beyond pilots and into the operating fabric of global businesses.

I work at the point where frontier models meet real organisations: architecture, workflows, governance, evaluation, human approval, and the messy operational layer where AI either compounds or dies.

Proof, not theatre.

Enterprise AI is full of demos. The hard part is production.

Point of view

AI systems, not AI pilots.

Most enterprise AI does not fail because the models are weak. It fails because the operating system around the models is missing.

Encode the organisation

The valuable asset is how work actually gets done: SOPs, exceptions, approvals, playbooks, judgment, and institutional memory.

Build the operating layer

Durable AI requires routing, tools, retrieval, evaluation, observability, governance, and human-in-the-loop design.

Govern to scale

Governance is not the brake. Done properly, it is what lets AI move safely from experiment to production.

Stay close to the work

Credible AI leadership now requires proximity to the tools. Strategy without hands-on fluency decays quickly.

1926 meets 2026

Anthropic launched Claude for Legal last Tuesday. The same week I posted a paper property information form to my solicitor in a stamped envelope. Both are the real 2026, and the gap between them is structural — not a complaint about pace.

The honest number

OpenAI is reportedly guaranteeing private equity partners 17.5% a year to anchor its new enterprise AI venture. That number is a confession — and it tells PE exactly where the operating margin has moved.
