Career perspective

Experience across software, cloud, ML, finance, and AI products.

The value in a workshop comes from connecting executive choices to the engineering and operating realities that determine whether AI reaches production.

DK

DataKnobs

AI/data product strategy and delivery across KREATE, KONTROLS, KNOBS, assistants, agents, data products, evaluation, and experimentation.

J

JPMorgan Chase

Leadership in machine learning engineering and data products across financial analysis, NLP, privacy, analytics, and enterprise use cases.

G

Google

Data science leadership, secure ML experimentation, cloud AI, Industry 4.0, and predictive-maintenance initiatives.

M

Microsoft

Software, data and ML experience across Bing, Azure ML, SQL Server, and large-scale audience intelligence systems.

Core expertise

AI is a system, not a model.

Workshops connect the business problem, data/context, model behavior, workflow, controls, and operating model instead of treating GenAI as an isolated API call.

1

AI data products

Define product contracts, metrics, users, data quality, lineage, APIs, and AI-assisted decision experiences.

2

GenAI, RAG & context

Design retrieval, grounding, structured + unstructured context, prompts, models, tools, and evaluation.

3

Agentic systems

Plan, route, call tools, manage state, apply approvals, and build reliable multi-step workflows.

4

Governance & controls

Security, privacy, auditability, policies, human review, model/prompt change, and measurable runtime controls.

5

Experimentation & evaluation

Offline evals, A/B tests, model/prompt comparisons, quality thresholds, regression tests, and continuous learning.

6

Cloud & enterprise architecture

GCP, Azure, AWS, enterprise data platforms, APIs, deployment architecture, observability, and production operations.

Workshop options

Choose leadership alignment, technical enablement, or DataKnobs adoption.

The content is tailored to participant roles and the real decisions the organization needs to make.

Leadership

  • Hands-on architecture
  • Implementation patterns
  • Evaluation and release gates
  • Delivery playbook
Platform

DataKnobs Product Workshop

For teams evaluating Kreate, KONTROLS, KNOBS and ABExperiment against enterprise needs.

  • Platform deep dive
  • Two solution walkthroughs
  • Integration model
  • Adoption blueprint

Facilitation approach

Move from concepts to decisions.

A good enterprise AI workshop should expose tradeoffs, surface assumptions, and produce artifacts that reduce the amount of rework after the meeting.

1

Frame the decision

Who is the user, what decision or workflow changes, and what measurable outcome matters?

2

Map context & architecture

Identify data, knowledge, models, tools, interfaces, constraints, integrations, and reusable capabilities.

3

Define acceptance

Specify quality metrics, failure modes, human review, governance, security/privacy, cost and reliability gates.

4

Design the operating loop

Clarify ownership, monitoring, evaluation, experimentation, incident response, and safe rollout/change.

5

Create the backlog

Turn the session into decisions, dependencies, owners, proof-of-value scope, and a production path.

Bring the hard AI decisions into one room.

Share the audience, goals, maturity, and one or two candidate workflows. We’ll recommend the right workshop structure.
