Hi, I’m Keolo 🤙

I build things that scale—from 0→1 MVPs to globally distributed teams delivering secure, AI-powered products. Over the last 20+ years, I’ve helped launch 25+ startups, many have gone on to exit, and shipped software that’s reached millions of users (including an OSS library with 4M+ downloads).

What I Do

• 🧠 Tech Strategy — align engineering with business goals, ensuring compliance (SOC 2, HIPAA, HITRUST) and capability.
• 🚀 Fractional CTO / Advisor — partner with founders to turn ideas into revenue-generating products.
• ⚙️ Systems Engineer — from AI/ML data pipelines to microservices at enterprise scale.
• 🌍 Team Builder — scale distributed teams while keeping attrition <1%.
