About Andrew Tanis
With over three decades of experience in IT and public safety technology, I specialize in bridging the gap between complex technical solutions and real-world operational needs. My career has spanned roles in pre-sales engineering, solution architecture, and partner enablement—supporting law enforcement, public safety, and enterprise clients across the U.S.I’ve led technical sales efforts for cutting-edge technologies including SaaS platforms, cloud-based video evidence management, ALPR systems, and body-worn/in-car video solutions. Whether flying drones in high-pressure SWAT demos or architecting multimillion-dollar cloud deployments, I bring a hands-on, mission-driven approach to every engagement.Colleagues know me as a “player-coach” who mentors teams, builds strong partner ecosystems, and earns trust through technical credibility and clear communication. My passion lies in helping customers solve their toughest challenges with scalable, secure, and innovative solutions.Let’s connect if you’re looking for a seasoned technical leader who thrives at the intersection of technology, sales, and public service.
