About Jay Marshall

I was fortunate to spend my first 15 years in tech working for large enterprises during the very formative years of current enterprise technology, ranging from Y2K modernization to distributed enterprise web applications and mobile development. I have spent the last 10 years in “big tech” working on digital transformation of those same large enterprises along with key strategic initiatives at the mega cloud providers. I have recently shifted gears into the startup world, focusing on helping customers cross the AI chasm with their machine learning workloads. My cross-industry experiences, along with a career working not only in corporate, but in the partner channel, as an entrepreneur, as a consultant, and directly for multiple industry-leading vendors give me valuable insight into all sides of the business cycle when it comes to innovation. I consider this one of my biggest strengths. I am not purely solving technical problems or \"geeking out\" over technology for technologies\' sake. I consider myself a business innovator and strategic thinker due to my roles ranging from pure technologist to executive advisor.
