Transforming Organizations Through Constitutional AI

25 Years Architecting Intelligence That Endures

From Ericsson to Airbnb: Building governance frameworks competitors study but can't replicate

Track Record: Where Investment Deepens With Every Implementation

Architected systems where organizational learning compounds over time. Over 25 years building frameworks that reward continued engagement—not by creating dependencies, but by making each implementation teach teams patterns they apply organization-wide. The more your people invest in understanding these architectures, the more valuable they become across every AI initiative. Organizations 18-24 months into adoption discover capabilities competitors haven't reached month one.

Designed ecosystems where all participants strengthen together. Led matrixed teams across continents where success metrics align—when Ericsson's platform succeeds, customers' compliance improves, regulators gain visibility, and partners see adoption. Airbnb's 75% compliance improvement didn't come from zero-sum tradeoffs but from frameworks where legal, engineering, and product teams discover shared wins. When everyone's incentives point the same direction, execution accelerates.

Built accountability structures that make good governance inevitable. Constitutional protections aren't aspirational—they're engineered commitments organizations can't bypass without triggering alerts boards see. Pattern recognition from hundreds of implementations: teams that pre-commit to governance protocols through technical architecture outperform those relying on policy documents. The system enforces what culture promises.

Executive Journey: Building Infrastructure Others Depend On

Each role created frameworks that outlasted my tenure—systems so deeply embedded, switching costs become prohibitive

September 2012 - August 2019

Architecting Platforms Where Investment Compounds

4PIA — Founder & CTO

  • Exit to Ericsson through demonstrated mutual value—not just technology acquisition but team and methodology. Ericsson needed what we built; we needed their scale. Win-win that both sides sought
  • Customer conversion improving as they engage longer—20% increase because platform revealed more value over time. Each hour customers invested, they discovered new capabilities. Sunk costs became sunk benefits
  • Platform architecture that rewards mastery—basic features accessible immediately, advanced capabilities unlocked through learning. Customers who invested time became power users who wouldn't switch. Expertise became moat
  • Partner ecosystem where success is mutual—integration partners who helped customers succeed saw increased adoption. Couldn't optimize revenue by harming customer experience. Aligned incentives throughout value chain
  • Technical controls enforcing data quality—can't run analysis on dirty data, can't publish dirty data without flags. System commits teams to beneficial habits before shortcuts seem tempting

Frameworks Where Your Investment Deepens Over Time

Not consulting engagements that end—partnerships where each implementation teaches your teams patterns they apply organization-wide. Advisory relationships structured as cooperative equilibrium: your governance maturity improves my frameworks, my pattern recognition accelerates your deployment. When both sides get stronger together, commitment becomes natural. Let's architect systems where doing the right thing is also the smart thing—technical controls that make constitutional protections inevitable, not aspirational.
