AI, IoT and computer vision projects can go wrong pretty quickly due to the complexities involved in developing and deploying these projects at scale. Absence of a well-trained team and a lack of proven processes can contribute to delays and...projects being stuck in limbo.Leading to a loss of control and a lack of confidence in pulling your team together towards your vision.Having helped technology leaders solve their edge deployment challenges at multi-billion dollar corporations as well as SMEs across the world, I have learned the key pitfalls to avoid while executing complex projects…...so you move much faster and reduce development delays for achieving higher ROI Let me show you how.✅ WHAT I DO: I help technology leaders to eliminate development delays and deploy complex projects 2X to 4X times the existing pace. ✅ WHO I HELP: CEOs, VPs, Directors and Technical Team Leads tasked with rolling out complex IoT and ML projects across any industry and are struggling with: technology complexities, increasing customer complaints, lack of meaningful analytics, project scalability issues and undue delays.✅ HOW I DO IT: 1) I work with the management to define a focused vision and an outcome drive overarching business strategy.2) I go through a deep analysis of the technology stack and the skills gaps. I uncover the common development and operational inefficiencies that result into delays of developing and deploying a complex distributed system. I integrate with your team and coach them on how to build robust processes for managing code, documentation, deployment, automation, monitoring and SRE. ✅ IMAGINE THIS: Your DevOps pipelines are set up, dashboards are at your finger tips, new features are implemented faster, the system is more reliable/scalable, your team is highly motivated and management is highly impressed with the returns from the new tech investment. What would that do for you and your organization?👍 WHAT OTHERS SAY: "I worked with Imran at Chick-fil-A as the Product Owner within our engineering pod that developed solutions to enable and support IoT connectivity for equipment in restaurants. Imran was an asset to our group, leveraging his experience in the IoT space and as a software developer to provide ideas, opportunities, and answers to challenges we were trying to solve." - Chris Baumann, Chick-Fil-A►►► WHEN YOU’RE READY: DM or email me to see if there’s a fit. imran@apptellect.com
