Sheldon M. Stoney

Sheldon M. Stoney

I'm a Forward Deployed Engineer at IBM, and the simplest way I describe what I do is: I close the gap between an AI investment and a Generative/Agentic AI solution actually running in production. That gap is where most enterprises stall, not because of a lack of ambition, but because advisory and consulting can only take you so far. The FDE role is different. I'm embedded directly inside client environments, scoping real problems against real codebases and real data, and building end-to-end agentic and GenAI solutions that exit as working software, not a shelved proof of concept.

My core focus is production delivery: standing up agents, tools, and backend APIs; integrating foundation models into live infrastructure, legacy data silos, and security perimeters; and hardening everything through evals, observability, and governance so clients can actually trust and operate what we build together. Every engagement I run is gated on measurable outcomes and exits with a client team that can own it. I'm based in Atlanta and love connecting with founders and builders who are serious about moving from AI pilots to production. If that's you, let's talk.

Mira Horáček

Mira Horáček

Mira is a Staff Security/Software Engineer at a unicorn-stage SaaS company running on Microsoft Azure in a multi-cloud environment. As one of the ten architects responsible for both software and security architecture, he shapes the trajectory of a platform built on .NET - from the monolith that carries the business to the emerging microservices that will define its future, while being actively engaged in both business and technical guidance during M&A events.

By day, I navigate the tension between shipping fast and shipping safe across a product surface that now includes LLM-powered features. By night (and early morning, and weekends), I build games, convenience apps, and small tools using every conventional and unconventional AI coding assistant I can get his hands on (I used to do small scoped projects prior to the AI era as well) and I have the experience as both a hobby and a long-running field study in what these tools actually produce.

I speak from the intersection of architecture, security, culture, and hands-on making. I have some production scars, real side-project joy, and very few slides with stock photos.

I work at the intersection of technical output, visibility, and global opportunity.

My focus is simple: helping engineers, product professionals, and founders turn their work into assets that are seen, valued, and rewarded globally.

Over time, I’ve seen a recurring gap and observed how several brilliant technical works never translate into real-world leverage due to lack of positioning and distribution. My work addresses that gap.

Through GoLoko Diaries, I’ve supported professionals across different industries in transforming their projects, contributions, and ideas into proof-of-work that attracts international jobs, partnerships, and recognition.

My sessions are practical, perspective-shifting, and focused on helping builders move from visibility gaps to global relevance.
