About Jim Inoue

I have over a decade of experience building and leading high-performing engineering teams. I\'m an on-hands engineer with a strong product mindset and track record of building early-stage platforms. I thrive in bridging the gap between business, product, and engineering domains to achieve impactful outcomesAs the CTO of Little Otter, I lead the technical and product vision and strategy for our digital platform that reimagines children\'s mental health care by pairing exceptional providers with our innovative technology. At Palantir Technologies, I was a founding engineer and group lead for two key products: Foundry Ontology and Foundry AI. I pioneered the digital twin concept in Foundry, which unlocked access to the platform for hundreds of thousands of non-technical users across industries. I also defined the product and technical strategy for modeling in Foundry, which accelerated the use of AI models in decision-making applications.
