Leadership Team

Kale Needham
CEO & Founder
Having started my career as a research scientist and then later as an analyst, I developed a passion for problem solving using insights from data. What started with a simple idea to start a company that would deliver more value for customers has now grown into an innovative AI/ML practice delivering decision advantage for some of the biggest utilities, defence primes and private organisations in Australia.

Chris Jansz
CTO
I have +20 yrs working in Australia, Asia, Europe and the US across a broad range of technology roles. My passion is now making our IoT-to-AI platform best-in-class to support our data scientists to deliver value for our customers. My favourite project so far has been evolving the AI-PaaS platform over the years and seeing it successfully handle a diverse range of use cases.
