Trust Growth Innovation Success Vision Leadership starts here.
Intro
I work like a founder inside other people’s companies. I take vague ideas, pull in the right people, and turn them into products that ship and measure real outcomes. Most of my time is spent building AI native systems that link physical infrastructure, code, and revenue together. As a licensed Professional Engineer (PE), PMP, and Certified Scrum professional with a practical background in Machine Learning, I bridge the gap between complex hardware constraints and scalable software. I am available for fractional and advisory engagements.
Projects
Data center cooling optimization for high-density, real-time telemetry workloads. We are actively partnered with top-tier OEMs. The Cooling Credit Unit (CCU) system is patent pending.
I advise on product strategy for C&I solar and energy procurement deployments. Learn more at EnergyHawk.com.

Skills
- Roadmaps & PRDs with LLMs. Using LLMs to draft and refine PRDs, roadmaps, and requirement docs so teams move faster with clear, structured specs.
- Sprints & unblocking pods via API workflows. Automating standups, sprint planning, and dependency checks with APIs so engineering stays unblocked and aligned.
- Cloud cost forecasting & product margins. Modeling cloud spend and unit economics so product and finance share a single view of margins and runway.
- API & system prototypes with AI. Using AI coding tools to sketch APIs, data models, and system diagrams before locking in implementation.
- Feedback → tickets with NLP. Turning support threads, interviews, and surveys into prioritized, well-scoped tickets with NLP and synthesis.
- Telemetry & DBs for product iteration. Using metrics, logs, and direct DB access to spot issues and opportunities and steer product decisions.
- CV pipelines & annotation workflows. Designing CV/ML pipelines and annotation schemas so model quality and delivery stay predictable at scale.

Testimonials
“Zack has a rare ability to turn abstract, technical ideas into products that actually ship. He connects engineering, finance, and operations around innovative solutioning and then productizes those ideas into systems our teams can rely on.”
George Salah, CEO & President, Apparent Energy
“Zack is one of the few product leaders I’ve worked with who can sit deep in the architecture with engineers and, in the same afternoon, translate those decisions into commercial outcomes. His technical instincts are sharp, but what really stands out is how he bends that capability toward real-world applications our customers actually use.”
Ethan Change, former CTO, Dispatch
