I’m a creative, people-first service and experience designer with 15+ years of transforming complex programmes into end-to-end services that leaders, boards, and delivery teams can understand, fund, and scale.

Shama Keskar

Shama Keskar

Shama Keskar is a three-time founding CTO. But that is not where the story started.

She got into tech through the back door 🙂 Physics graduate. No CS degree. First job in the United States was cashier at a Big 5 sporting goods store in Silicon Valley. Broke into Google in 2004 as a QA engineer.

Then spent the next 15+ years scaling engineering across Google, LinkedIn, and Amazon – leading quality for Google's Online Advertising platform (scope: ~98% of company revenue), pioneering Alexa automation, launching Amazon Go and Amazon One as Amazon's first physical retail launches. Grew teams from 4 to 50+ engineers.

In 2021 she went founding CTO. And has not stopped since – Nickelytics (edge AI + computer vision for autonomous outdoor advertising), SignAI (real-time bidirectional ASL/English AI interpreter prototype demoed to Microsoft), and most recently co-founder & founding CTO of an AI-native fashion wholesale platform where she built the production document extraction system that hit 96% accuracy across live paying merchants.

Currently writing her first book The Trust Layer – building AI systems you can actually ship. Her thesis is simple – generation is solved, trust is the product. She writes about it publicly on Substack and speaks on it wherever engineering leaders will let her.

The through-line from QA engineer at Google to three-time founding CTO has always been the same – care about the boring engineering work everyone else skips. Evals, reliability, trust architecture, et al. Ship things that actually work in production.

Based in Seattle. Available for keynotes, panels, closed-door founder sessions, and technical deep-dives.

- People can change; they do not oppose change but offer their vision. To be respected.

- Ideological battles are meaningless; it matters more to understand the problem and what can be done to solve it.

Stephanie E. Clark

Stephanie Clark started her career in cost accounting and manufacturing operations — and it was leading her company's first ERP implementation that hooked her for good. Twenty years and 500+ implementations later, she's the founder of Elliott Clark Consulting (ECC), a Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central partner built around a simple belief: technology only works when the process behind it is right first.

Stephanie developed ECC's Process → Technology → Automation methodology after watching too many implementations fail for the same reason — teams jumping to technology (or now, AI) before the underlying process could support it. She holds PMP, CPIM, and CBAP certifications and has spent two decades helping manufacturers and distributors get ERP right: effective, sustainable, and built to actually hold up under automation and AI.

When she's not presenting or writing on ERP strategy, she's leading ECC's growing team of consultants, helping mid-market manufacturers and distributors move past spreadsheets and disconnected systems into ERP environments that are genuinely ready for what's next.
