About Mouctar Diallo

The value of an idea lies in the using of it.”—Thomas EdisonUncommon for the typical Head of IT, VP, CIO, I\'ve always been driven by cultivating new ideas for implementation on teams and across the enterprise rather than simply resting easy with last month\'s state-of-the-art in information technology and infrastructure. Such an approach, empowering me to constantly provide organizational optionality to the C-suite, is a defining feature of my tenure in the Silicon Valley, starting with a decades-long stint from Apple Computer, Claris Corporation, FileMaker Inc, AMD, NVIDIA, Navis, Quadrillon Partners, Lunation, to Space Systems/Loral, MDA Space Missions Canada, Maxar Space Systems at Maxar Technologies, and beyond.AREAS OF EXPERTISE• Founder-level strategy and execution• IT security and compliance strategies• Deployment strategies for emerging infrastructure, AI, cloud computing• Creating KPIs in unstructured environments• Reengineering business operations for growth• Strategic leadership and mentoring of teamsWith a never-ending passion for IT infrastructure, AI, cloud computing, enterprise-centric products, and leading teams through mentorship and setting an execution-driven example, I\'m now looking for my next opportunity in either software and/or hardware industries.
