Getting an AI demo working is one step. Making it useful in your business takes clear priorities, reliable delivery and people who can use it. I help founders and leadership teams take AI from promising ideas and pilots into practical business workflows. I’m the founder of Octainfinity Ltd., an independent AI consultancy. Previously, I worked at McKinsey and QuantumBlack. I bring 15+ years of hands-on experience across AI, cloud platforms and technology delivery. My work has included an agentic underwriting solution that turns broker requests into quotations for expert review, fraud detection for banking, and an AI assistant for telecom. I work with business leaders to clarify the problem, decide what is worth building and turn that decision into a delivery plan. I also work hands-on with engineering teams to build and deploy the solution. Through Octainfinity, I can help with: • AI opportunity assessment: identify useful applications and prioritise where to start. • AI implementation: build agents, assistants and automated workflows, with security, reliability and cost considered from the outset. • Delivery leadership and adoption: guide technical decisions, support your team and help people use what gets built. Teaching and mentoring are a big part of how I work. I want teams to understand and use the systems we deliver. Have an AI use case in mind, or a pilot that needs to move forward? Message me with the workflow you want to improve and where you’re getting stuck. DM for collaboration.
